Pinball Machine Mods

As the popularity of having a pinball machine at home is growing, pinball mods are becomming the thing to do to customise your own machine.

Lots of differnt pinball mods are available: from adding new toys, decals and artwork, to enhanced lighting, hole protectors and even reproducing what was on the prototype pinballs that didn't make it into the production models.

The list of custom pinball mods is endless, and only limited by imagination.

The vast majority of these modifications are DIY (Do It Yourself), and generally easy to install. And they can be a great addition to your pride and joy.

So why not have a look at what you can do for your own pinball to give it some more life, and make it your own...

Indiana Jones (Williams)

Jason (from Melbourne, Australia) kindly shared a pinball mod that he's done to his Indiana Jones pinball machine:

The mod is the Display Panel Jackpot Lights. This was on the prototype Indiana Jones pinballs, but never made it into production. Jason shows you how to add this feature back on to your Indiana Jones...

Stern Pinball Flippers (1977 - 1984)

If you have an early Stern Pinball Machine, then finding some parts for it can be a bit of a problem.

Thankfully, Stern used Bally designed circuit boards (under license), and therefore a lot of the coils, switches and targets used are the same. But there is one major part that is not - The Flippers!

In our Stern Pinball Flipper upgrade guide, we will show you how you can use newer model flipper parts in your older Stern pinball, without having to do any major modifications to what is already there.
