The clear plastic lane guide screw holes from CPR don't match my
originals. The spacing on my originals are 3" apart and on the CPR
version they are just over 2". Anybody else have this problem? At
least I noticed before I removed the metal posts. I have the swinging
door model if that makes a difference.

Thanks,
Scott

Scott,

I scanned an NOS set of EBD Plastics to create all of these plastics.
Perhaps there was a production change in the spacing from the Bally
version to the Midway/Bally (swingout) version? I also have the
Midway version & I just check it, and you are correct, the spacing is
different, however, on the bright side we can remove the Metal Lane
Guide and use it as a templet to drill new holes into the plastics,
which won't be seen as they are covered by the metal guide on
top......Do all the other Plastics fit the Midway version?....Just
curious....

There was a mismatch between a hole on the clear plastic to the left
of the eight ball drop. It did not line up with the top plastic so I
drilled a new hole there. You can't see that mistake. Everything else
lined up fine and they look real nice.
