Doesn't seem to be a lot of 63 owners posting. Where are you and where do you hang out ?(forum)
I need a picture of the underside of the stainless trim at the top of the bottle door. I am trying to add the door light and dont know what this area looks like
tks Bart
ps - this is not my machine in the photo, it's one I found that shows the bulb holder

you'll need to cut a rectangular hole 2-1/2" x 1-3/4" AND make sure your bottle stack has a clearance notch at the top so the wires don't get crushed against it when the door closes ( short-circut city).

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |

So it's just a hole and no lens ? I believe the socket is the same as the correct change bulb holder and I surmise that the light is tied in to the coke sign switch.

There are 63's without the light? Every one that I have or have seen has always had the light.

both of mine are 1960, One has the lighted Coke sign neither has the door light.
I can't find good pics of this feature, seems there isn't much as far as 63 restoration sites. Nothing of a detailed nature. If you know of some or have any favorites I'd love to see the links.

I've never needed to go anywhere else, nor do I think there are any other sites like this one... I'll take some close shots of my light setup.
Does your bottle stack have the cutout at the top like the one shown in the picture? If not, thats what JohnieG is talking about.

My stack has the cutout for the socket clearance.
The picture looks different than my machine. The inside of the bottle door on mine is stainless
It looks as if I am going to need that whole assembly, I thought all it needed was a bulb , socket and some wiring.
