When removing screws from the playfield, reinstall by first turning them counter-clockwise to match the original groove in order to respect the integrity of the playfield wood.

Thank you for purchasing our Wonka Factory Upgrade with Interactive Pipe valve mod! This mod is the favorite design I've made, and is the culmination of several iterations and ideas put in from everybody here at Mezel Mods - thank you.

Please watch the short prior to proceeding with installation.

1. Start by removing the stock factory plastic.

The stock plastic is held in place by 4 phillips screws and nuts. You may need to lift up the playfield to access the nuts on the left side of the factory.

2. Install Replacement Factory Upgrade

Install the factory upgrade in the same fashion in which you removed the stock plastic. You may need to lift up the playfield to access the nuts on the left side of the factory. Remember to attach the spot light to the front right factory mount.

3. Install the pipe fitting with the rotating interactive valve.

To install the interactive pipe fitting, slip one side of the fitting onto the ramp railing. Notice that there is grooves in the fitting for both the horizontal piece of the ramp, and the vertical.

Continue by pressing the other side of the fitting down onto the ramp. This fitting is now complete - the design intention was to fit snugly without need for any extra adhesive.

4. Install the "Danger" Curved Fitting

Starting with the right side of the fitting, follow the same process from step 3. This time, you have some wiggle room to slide the fitting along the ramp. You must install the fitting further down the ramp from the factory first and then slide it up the ramp while guiding it into the factory port.

Gently slide the fitting along the ramp and align it with the factory upgrade port. The pipe should fit into the port with a little finesse.

5. Install the molded pipe plastic.

Install the included molded pipe plastic by sliding the fittings along the ramp to accommodate. You may need to trim your plastic accordingly for the best possible fit.
