Well, last weekend the microswitch died in one of the HAPP Super sticks that came in my MVS cab.
I threw in a spare I have, but figured...hell. While I'm at it, I might as well start restoring the fuckin' thing eh?
And I happened to find ALL the keys, including the one to open the back. Monitor adjust FTW!
Not that it needs it, functionally it's great. So I ordered a new CPO, and a mini marquee, and some new buttons.
The new buttons were put in mostly because I couldn't believe how horribly it was wired together.
Cold solder joints and what looks like...a paper clip used as ground. And mr stray quick disconnect, hi mr stray quick disconnect!
much better!
The mini marquee came in today.

I'm not sure what to do with the bezel. Any ideas?
also thinking about replacing the flourecent light behind the marquee with a black light. anyone tried that?
And the front corner is broken off, what's a good product to fix it?
