Trap Pedal Part Found!

:shock: A message for all ghostheads out there:

To my amazement, I located the exact part used for the “clear box” found on the trap pedal, I presume. Norm’s plans call for a paper clip holder with some floppy disk parts inside. However, I am pretty sure i found the right part. At ACE Hardware, I stumbled across something called a “blade dispenser” for utility knives and scrapers of the like. It is the right size, shape, and is even filled with blades that make the contraption look exactly like the movie. This is a really important find, in my opinion, and simply had to post it for my fellow busters.

Good luck and happy hunting,

P.S. - Sorry in advance for driving anyone crazy after spending mind numbing hours searching hardware stores looking for this darn thing.

I hate to be a killjoy, after you searched for so long, but… The actual part is an ITT relay. To the best of my knowledge, they don’t make them anymore, atleast not a screen accurate one.

I’m sure you’ve found a great substitute though. :smiley:

The ITT relays are damn near impossible to find, but what you have found may be a good substitute, do you have a picture of it to show off? I’d be interested to see it :slight_smile:

I found a relay similar to the ITT, its clear and looks close. Maybe a tad bit smaller but without the actual dimensions of the ITT who knows for sure. I’ll post pics later.

As I have the real deal I will add this, as it isn’t updated on that page there are 11 pins…

Also when I get time I will post up a picture with dimensions…

As I said above here are the reference photos to a real deal…
