I’m excited to announce the immediate availability of the C904 Housings and C905 buttons in 10 different pinball friendly translucent colors. The Colors are intended to closely match the colors of many pinball plastics such as lane guides, star posts, and switched inserts and are intended to be back-lit with LEDs. These new buttons are replacement parts for the following manufacturers / Part numbers:
- Buttons:
- Bally C-905 button
- Gottlieb B-16680 button
- Stern / Chicago Coin Machine 4B-200 button
- Housings:
- Bally C-904 housing
- Gottlieb C-13900 bushing
- Stern / Chicago Coin Machine 4B-199 housing
The Gottlieb BUSHING FOR DOUBLE PUSHBUTTON #B-21018 is not currently available; however, it should be possible to modify our buttons easily to replicate them. I’ll try to spend some time in the future to publish a how-to-modify here in this blog if there is interest.
These buttons are available in the following translucent colors:
- Yellow,
- Amber,
- Orange,
- Red,
- Blue,
- Green,
- and Purple.
Additionally we’ve created some unique custom colors which should be of interest to the pinball community:
- Clear
- Teal,
- and Smoke Black.
We also have some limited stock of:
- Lime Green,
- Smoke-Blue,
- and Light Purple.
Colors are show below and should represent the colors available. Please Note:Keep in mind your monitor and my camera’s color balance will throw the colors off a bit from the actual product you receive so use these as an approximation of what will be shipped to you.
The Housings:
Both the Housings and Buttons are made out of PMMA (Acrylic) so they can be easily laser etched and paint filled like I did on my Original Bally Star Trek Restoration.
Please let us know if there is a color not represented here… or if you’d like to see some opaque colors made.

Bally Flipper Button Mod
I’d also like to call Attention to a product we’ve had on the website for a couple of months… The Bally Flipper Mod was designed by myself several years ago for the Bally Star Trek Restoration. Each PCB features 12 LEDs in either Red or Green and rotated the LEDs to simulate a rotating pattern. I’ve held off announcing them here because I wanted to get the companion buttons on the website so fellow Pinheads would have the option of buying them with the colored button of their choice – IE one stop shopping.
This Flipper button mod is available as a 2 PCB set and looks like this in Green:
Here are a couple of videos of the Red in action:
