Finally got around to putting this in my poker. Unfortunately the space bar stab is one of those bendy cherry ones and it soooo doesn't work (did I put the wire in upside down? Don't remember). So rather than toss my now pretty hefty pcb at the nearest wall, I set it aside to be once again desoldered in its entirety.  Once I cool off a bit first. Maybe 5 days or so.

Boooo

I had the same problem after I installed my plate. I ended up taking a pair of snips to the cherry stabilizer to avoid having to unsolder the switches again. I replaced it with a costar stab, of course that lead to a problem with the backlight led. :) I ended up de-solder the led and sanding it down a bit to get it to fit with the costar stab.
I'm trying figure out shortcuts to avoid desoldering but I'm just gonna have to nut up and do it. You may see a WTB thread going up for a new poker PCB once I'm through with this thing haha. Plates are a pain in the ass but in the end it's going to be worth the effort.

EDIT: I'm too impatient to wait for costar stabs haha

i desoldered my poker pcb about 8 times before it finally shat the bed.  you'll be fine!  just take your time and dont overheat.

Lurch was selling this plate installed in a poker, but it's too late now as it was sold like a day ago? These are very hard to come by (personal exp), or it could be just that I'm very unlucky because it took me quite a long time to get it.

Unfortunately I don't think that we're going to see another 60% plate GB until the GH60 rev 3 is released to the public and we have third parties doing runs of PCBs and plates.
