Addams Family Thing hole post

I was just waxing the playfield on my Addams Pin and found there is a
small hole near the skill shot hole that looks like a post is supposed
to be there. I looked through the rubber set I have and there is
supposed to be one there that takes the sleeve rubber. Does anyone know
the size and type that it takes? I looked in the manual but it only
shows which ones the machine uses not WHERE they are used.....Thanks

Check IPDB.

Overlook pictures and maybe you will find what you need.

The plastic piece with the bug is hiding where the post is. I can't
tell from this angle. I looked at some of Chris Hutchins pics online
too and just cant see it with all the angles. I guess this is why I
never noticed it missing until now.

I think only early games had this hole and it's not to be used, I
placed a mini post in the hole an discovered that it is a great ball
trap. My game has this hole, leaf flipper switches and the backwards
side art.

Are you referring to the hole described in this post?

I just bought an IPB repro playfield that had this hole as well, which
is certainly not present in my original playfield. I'm just planning
on leaving it empty when I do the playfield swap.

Thanks for straightening this up. I guess I will leave it out then. It
does list a sleeve rubber to be there in the manual. It just didn't
specifically list the post number....
I do however have to fix a screw that is protruding near the hole
though. Someone must have used the wrong screw from under the playfield
and it is sticking up a little bit near the thing hole!
