Is there a place to get a replacement reflector for the backlight bulb behind the control panel? Mine seems to be dinged up...Do they sell these things??

Thanks!
 
You mean the bent piece of cardboard with aluminum foil on it? Go bend your own piece of cardboard and cover it. I used automotive chrome/reflective tape...it was about 4" in width. Super shiny and smooth. I had to use 2 pieces, with the seam right behind the blacklight....making it invisible. Now, on Discs of Tron, they used a piece of polished metal instead. Sturdier, but gets pitted and tarnished. Fortunately, Naval Jelly polished that one right up!
 
Another option - what I did - was use chrome poster board from a Michaels store. I posted details in a blog post on CoinOpSpace like a year ago if you're interested. I'm curious to see what this chrome tape is like though. Maybe a better solution!
