Arcade Renovations Slug Acceptor
2/4/2022 - Version 2! An alignment issue for larger tokens has now been resolved.Easily and inexpensively convert your quarter games to tokens, or use any coin, with this 3d printed coin "mech". Not truly a "mech" as it has no moving parts, it is a drop in replacement for regular arcade or pinball coin mechs with the standard 4-pin mounting method, or you can trim off 2 pins for mounting in coin doors that use a 2-pin mount.
Turn off free-play, install these, and grab a 50-pack of Brass Arcade Tokens to recreate the arcade feel with your games!
- 2 piece, snap together design (pre-assembled)
- June 2024 - Now printed with ABS filament, prior versions were PETG
- Made in Connecticut, USA
- Home use only of course, as it does no validation of the coin like a regular coin mech

Often needs modd8ng
10/17/2020
In all i bought 10 of these for five machines. I had to mod 6 of them to make them work. I have 2 midway cabs with coin mechs that attach flat to the door. For one i had to enlarge the opening with a Dremel. The other worked fine. They worked fine in an old EM pinball. Dynamo cab required cutting off tabs (no big deal) but also drilling holes to put screws in. Not easy to get perfect. Same with a Defender cab. Long story short, I got them to work, but not without worry. In my opinion I would give them a 5 star review if it was mentioned n the description some of the modification requirements for common cabinets other than just having to cut off tabs. It was not a drop in and required a Dremel, a bench vise, Calipers and some weird sized drill bits to get just right.
Our responseChris - We have emailed you for details and photos as modifications should not be needed if a standard coin mech (ex: Suzo Happ 42-3079-100) also fits.
Modification needed

As noted in the other review, this had to be modified with a Dremel tool to allow the coin to fall out the bottom on an original midway Pac-Man machine. Not a big deal but should be in the description.
Great token acceptor
