Creature “Tail Light Mod”

The  Creature  “Tail  Light  Mod”  is  a  mod  that  is  designed  in  Australia  by  a  CFTBL  owner  for  all  the  other 
CFTBL owners around the world that love their game and want to capture that classic 50’s / 60’s feeling of 
classic car rear tail light while still functional - synced with 2 playfield features - “Parking Ok” & “Move Your
