Behold... My white Jaguar!
Got my "dental" Jaguar housing in the mail today! Apparently another box of these was found a little while ago and I was able to finally snag one to save my "beater" Jaguar that's in horrible cosmetic shape.
All in all the process of switching the casing wasn't too bad. Because this was made for dental units, I had to sand down the power button area (it would get stuck), and I had to chop off two tiny front posts inside the housing and realign them to where they normally are on a stock Jag (otherwise, the motherboard at the controller port would wobble).
So far so good though! I spent about 45 minutes with Pinball Fantasies, with no problems. It works well, and it looks cool to boot!
More are still for sale in case anyone wants one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/110804896487
