Here is the panel, I hooked it up to test and works great.

Could also use a forgotten worlds move strip, did anybody ever make one?

Lovely lineup west,

Yeah I just noticed that 4pin amp connector on the wiring diagram the other day. Had the same idea but you beat me to it :)

Does anyone know off hand what bulb the marquee light needs? There isn't one in there to check.

No he just closed the preorders a couple days ago. Wanna go halfies on getting a move strip made? Arcade overlays always made me some nice custom stuff. Just need some art to send to them to work off of.

If you want to get a blueish one , sure, not sure if you planned on having one that matches your CPO.

Indeed it does! That looks excellent, I rather like those [edit] old versus city panels. You going to keep the stock blue marquee?

Looks awesome! I would definitely pick up a marquee, it really completes the look of the cabinet. I went with a couple from Spectre over at AO.

Looking good! I'd recommend doing the starter bulb anyway. I put new flourescents in my net cities, and within a few months both starters kicked the bucket and had to be replaced.

I'll pick up a starter soon, then. And yeah, I do plan on getting a marquee for it. I have Melty Blood instructions in the CP right now, so I might go with a Melty Blood marquee.

Another pic. I should have done a before pic, but you can imagine what it looked like.

You guys know where I can buy a new wiring setup for the control panel? Full harness would be great and save time, but I'm fine with making my own with the right connectors. Any idea where to get them, pin outs, etc?

Grendelrt/codecrank - you guys rock. Thanks.

I was nervous that restoring a cab would mean working in the dark, but the community support here is excellent. :)

Lemmonys cables are top notch, you can make your own but a nice set of crimpers is about 50 bucks, then you need pins, wire, and amp connector housings. If this is the only cab you got buy from him, if you have a slew of them to make though buying the parts may be the better idea. Here is a set I made ImageUploadedByTapatalk1409334927.476701.jpg
It's fun to be able to make your own and I had enough cables to make to warrant the price which is the only reason I made my own. I couldn't find the kick harness connector at the bottom so I just bought those from lemony and they are quality!
