6 pairs of speaker mounting rings for adding LED strip and 3 pairs of inserts. Big thanks to Phil @Sven Normansson for these, they're amazing well made. Just have to add the led strip ( I have tons of the stuff ) and rgb controllers ( really cheap on ebay ). Will work out way cheaper than the available kits.
On Saturday I gave my MMr speaker panel the look it needed thanks to my pin buddy @Mooseman (or it would have if I had put it on straight) but no worries he is providing me with another one 
It may not be the perfect solution but sure beats buying a new speaker panel.
I'm not sure if he is selling these but is a nice fix so I'm sure he won't mind if you get in touch if you need one.
Cheers @Mooseman
thats better
before you use that, cover the vents with clingfilm. Otherwise you'll be doing quite a lot of dusting.
Nice purchase, thats my old one and @carl lawrence before me. All credit goes to Carl for fixing it up in the first place, all I did was play it. Awesome machine, still miss it.

Yeah it's in great shape a true credit to its previous owners, my 2nd 80s machine I have ever played and owned the other was fg, I am actually surprised that I prefer medusa to fg, it's got some cool features for an older table, fun to play thanks Andy
Mine has just been up and running for a week now. I assumed the difficulty I was having was because I'm a poor player, so interested to hear that a more experienced person finds it tough as well. When the ball heads to the side outlanes only about 10% come back to the flippers the other 90% seem to drain.
Yeah it's a lane drain monster very addictive though, I'm a pretty bad player to im afraid although I am starting to find gb much easier than this!
OK, so a packet of washers isn’t the most exciting thing you’ve ever received…I know. I previously bought some of the transparent nylon washers for fixing on the slingshot plastics, sold by various pinball suppliers. Worked fine on Medusa and looked like they would protect the plastics. However on Barracora they were too small and didn’t extend beyond the edge of the plastics. Worked out I needed M6 30mm washers and took a very long time to find any…but eventually found these. Seem to be the right size. Are these things worth it? Is it a risk/appearance trade off?

I'd say yes they're worth it. You can hardly notice the transparent ones. I have them on all of my games. Not only the slingshots but any plastic which I can fit them on
