I've got a Midway Space Invaders here that I just started cleaning up tonight... figure I might as well do something with it while I wait for working boards to pop up for cheap.
Anywho, I was taking the buttons off, and noticed that the right side of the metal CP piece wasn't bolted down... they didn't even drill any holes for the bolts. When I start to put this guy back together, should I drill the holes... or leave it as it came out of the factory? Normally, an easy question to answer... but I've kinda got a thing for symmetry... but I also have a thing for leaving things how they were made (for the most part)... and now, those two little quirks are battle'ng it out in my head.
To drill, or not to drill... that is the question. Hell, the other question is are there even supposed to two bolts on the right side of the metal piece... I've seen a few Space Invaders, but it's just one of those things I've never paid attention to...
