where is best place to get mk1 art and button/joystick kit?

I picked up a mk1 cab yesterday and the cab is in awesome shape...just needs a makeover. Already know I will get the side art from thisoldgame....but still need to find a cpo and side piece set for the control panel. I know gameongraphix has both..but was told that their art is sub-par...sorry if anyone is offended by that...that's just what I heard. I also want to get new joysticks and buttons for it. Is there a place that sells as a set..or do I buy separately? Also is the t-molding just standard 3/4" red? Any help would be great! Thanks
 
This old game should/is repro-ing the cp box art (not the overlay yet tho), Imo paradise/bob roberts for Happ Comp/IL Euro sticks and buttons (get some heavy springs while your at it as well).

3/4" red for t-molding is correct, you'll need about 23-30' of it.
 
Thanks for the info! Do u have the website for his stuff?"bob roberts"....I will see what thisoldgame is doing with the cp side box art...would still need a cpo though

your browsers find function is your friend on his parts page but joysticks/buttons are pretty well organized.
 
The box art will be ready next week and Ill start looking at the cpo

looks good, wish i had more space to work on my machines like that. oh well it is spring/summer :D

keep the pics coming.
 
Friend ordered some buttons from TQ and I see they are E Switches but I seem to have Cherries on my KI machine. Are the Cherries orig HAPP ? Are they "better" or just "original" ??

i believe the new cherries are E-Switches and they're cheaper/not as well made. I haven't gotten enough of the new ones really to try them out.

Originally on the machine they were cherries.
