Vewlix/Chewlix help

[atshrivas]

Hi everyone

just bought a used Chewlix, really happy with the product but I would like to make upgrades. my CP is a two player 6 button lay out with no sub panel - pls see pics. is there a way to install subpanel to this or do i need a whole new control panel itself. this appears to be a vewlix l.

where can i get a whole control panel aswwel - the entire unit not the 8 button slim metal piece (which i saw how to replace.

On an official Vewlix the control panel surrounding consists of three parts, the lower/bottom panel, the back/upper panel, and the front (hinged) panel.
You should also be aware the surrounding exists in two different styles, the original (L, F, C, Vs) and Diamond (L-AMI, Diamond Blue/Black/Orange).

I was able to order the Diamond style front panel new from Taito Parts Division directly, however I've since been told these parts are no longer available.
It was crazy expensive BTW, I believe I spent total 480$ shipped (EMS) from Japan for that one single piece.

The last bit of bad news I've got for you... I'm told (even if you could still buy these parts and no you can't) the Chewlix CP hole pattern won't align with a real Vewlix.

I would just buy another Chewlix and strip it for parts, flip anything you don't want/can't use here. *shrug*
