Re: WTB - DMD Pin for $2500 or less
Brandon (bmaster31) it was a pleasure and nice to meet another pinball fan. I'm glad everything worked out. Sad to see her go but happy knowing that it went do a good home. I would love to see the LEDs when you get a chance and if you need help with anything reach out. If I don't know I know someone here will. Great buyer and wonderful experience. +1 Rep from me!

Thank you Matt and everyone else for your input. I'll be looking for some advice in the near future on an LED upgrade for this machine.
Thanks again!

buy the warm white frosted 2SMD style. Buy in bulk packs of 100 and save big. They are by far my favorite bulb and great price, plus Comet puts money back in to develop more new stuff all the time.
Re: WTB - DMD Pin for $2500 or less
I buy most of my stuff from Comet. They have a great selection and prices are decent. Their frosted 1/2 SMD and 1/2 LED bulbs are great. Warm White is a little cooler (but close) to stock, and Natural White is excellent for cooler lighting.
Be aware that if you have small holes (such as for some GI) in the playfield that their non-ghosting bulbs are thicker than the bulbs without non-ghosting, so they don't fit in some narrow applications. I have a SF2 that requires a very thin bayonet bulb neck.
Fortunately that's not a problem for most insert applications, as they tend to be bayonet mounts "floating in space" on a bracket under the table.
Also check out the flexible neck bulbs. Those work great for some insert applications under the playfield. Especially inserts where the bulb is at 90 degrees to a circular insert. You can get much more even coverage (and less bleedover to other inserts) using the flexible necks.
