## Transcript

All right, guys, so you got your arcade one up outrun cabinet and you're like, man, I thought there was a Sega logo on the side. Well, yeah, there was a Sega logo on the original. For whatever reason, they couldn't put it on here. But don't worry. Arcade Graphics has your back. They sell a five dollar Sega logo you can put right on the side of your cabinet. It'll look nice. It will restore it to how you remember it looking. Pretty easy to put on. Just peel back, stick it on, get a little felt thing and look. It looks awesome. It looks really, really good. So I'm pretty stoked on that. So there is another thing that is not authentic on the cabinet, and it is the steering wheel cap cover. So when you pop this off, it just says Arcade 1-Up Outrun. The original one did not look like this. The original one looked similar to this. Actually, exactly like that. So what about, how do we restore that? Well, they sell a kit for that, too. It's $3. It's a $3 decal, but you're going to have to peel this one off first. So I actually peeled it off. I'm sure you could put the sticker over it. It would have been fine. It was kind of a pain in the butt. So I'm going to help you out real quick. If you choose to go this route, basically what you're going to do is just go to the sink, get the rest of the access off, and you're probably going to want to use a little bit of Goo Gone because once you get all of the sort of adhesive off, it's still kind of there. So basically just get some Goo Gone, put it on there, get the rest of this, you know, gook off, and then from that point you can just dry it off and you should be good to go. Now from here you can put on the new logo. All I would say here is there you go for reference. Just make sure you know how it's supposed to go because the notch is the center bottom of that little piece right there. So make sure when you put the decal on you put it on straight because otherwise it's going to be crooked and you're not going to like it. And if you have OCD like me it going to bug you the whole entire time you have it on there So just peel back the piece on the back Then all you do is just make sure you line it up with that notch so it perfectly in the center Rub it on there And then the cool thing is there's just three posts on the back that just go clip right into place. It's super easy. And once it's all wiped down and you know the sticker's on good, you can just put it right back on there. Give it one last wipe and then you're good to go. So check out how it looks. I think this looks so much better than it did before. So now it looks more authentic to the upright version of this cabinet. Okay, now Tyler does sell a bezel kit for $25. I actually don't mind the Arcade 1-Up bezel, so I'm going to leave it alone, but I'll have a link in the description to that too. The landing page will have both the bezel, the Sega side art, and that little cap cover for the steering wheel. So see, that is much better. It looks way, way better. I like it. These are small little modifications. modifications anybody can do and they're not going to cost you a lot of money and now let's ride out of here special thanks to tyler goodman over at arcade graphics for providing the artwork i'll have all the links in the description below if you guys like this video give me a thumbs up consider subscribing to the channel put your comments below and don't forget to hit that notification bell see me in form of other videos like this one and we'll see you oh the next one
