    Default Lock Cylinder Size for Golgo 13 Pachislo

    So I picked up my first pachislo last weekend, it's a Golgo 13, a Heiwa machine. As you can see from the pictures attached to this post, the previous owner drilled out or punched out the area around the lock cylinder, probably because he didnt have the key, and didn't bother looking up whether you could open it up without one. I replaced the reset key switch on the power supply with a toggle switch, and i'm able to set the odds, and it plays great (it came with a couple hundred tokens). I think i'll cosmetically be able to fix the damage around the lock cylinder, but I need some help with picking out which lock cylinder I need for this machine. I've noticed that there are multiple different lengths and different latch styles that grab the door mechanism. So if someone could help point me in the right direction that would be great!
    Thanks in advance!
    Sorry if the pictures don't come through right, it wouldn't let me host them on here so I hosted through imgur instead.

    Hi Lordnikon,
    I have a Golgo 13 and was able to take a few measurements.

    The diameter of the lock is 20mm. Length (rough measurement) appears to be 70mm + the tab attached to the back. I could not remove mine for better images or measurements, but images are below. Ignore the corrosion. I'll clean it off someday.

    Hopefully these get you pointed in the right direction!

    Best regards!

    You bet. I believe this lock, linked below, is the one you need for your Golgo 13.

    Yea I had seen that, $50 just seems like a lot for what it is. It looks like there are some other lock cylinders that are the same length but just use a different latch style and they're much cheaper so I might try to modify one of those. I also found a post on here where someone used a door lock actuator for a car to pull the locking mechanism down, I ended up ordering one last night (dirt cheap like 3 dollars) and am going to give that a try first. Still going to use a key switch to turn on the actuator though. If it works i'll make a forum post about it.

    Yeah I don't blame you for that in the least. I've spent hundreds on the smallest Pachi parts over the last few months. You'd think everything was gold plated. :-)
