I had Mikonos at Zona Arcade redo mine. I think the large silver and black one wasn’t quite correct as I asked him to reproduce my serial number etc but he missed it. But in any case if you send him a picture, dimensions and/or scan he’ll be able to do it for you. Most of them he’s done already...
True. This was my first assisted attempt but had a L4/5 disc replacement ten years ago and back is really sore lately. I still ended up putting the tube back in using the tilt method where I tip the machine forward and chock up the back as high as I can and then lift it in. Handles project would...
Some more AI blurb for you. Obviously I’m no authority but know enough to at least explore this option if you don’t want the pain of researching and ordering parts.
Cutting a typical MS8-style 4-pin yoke plug in half is a common workaround, but only one half is a reliable drop-in fit.

Don’t worry. It’s not a deal breaker. You’ll get it sorted. I got some pins and connectors from arcadepartsandrepair from memory - although people source them from aliexpress I think as well. I can’t help you with part numbers right now but there are threads on here with them.
Edit: Before I posted below I didn’t even see the yoke was wrong - so take my posts with a grain of salt - they’re not relevant - and yes get the right yoke.
You may need to re-pin some new connectors that fit the two separate connection points on the board. There is another you’ll see like...
Congrats @djsheep. CCC is a great resource that enriches the hobby for many of us. And what a top opportunity for other hobbyists to work with you as a well established and dedicated store. Looking forward to the next project 👍🏼
It’s quite easy. Open the panel and disconnect the wiring harnesses - I recall at the rear of the connectors in the tray. Then remove the bolts facing the front that are inside the back edge of the panel tray. Next remove the side bolts from the the left and right inner sections of the panel...
