Special high score device in pinball

In my quest to make the virtual pinball as realistic as possible, I wanted to add a knocker. It's a special solenoid in pinball machines that make a loud "knock" sound whenever you break a high score or get a free game. People at the bar or arcade would look around to see where the sound came from, acknowledging you must be a good player!
I was able to reuse the original knocker solenoid from the donor cab luckily to save some money. I routed another wire from the cabinet to the backbox with a connector in between so I can still easily remove the backbox for transport.
Really a fun little addition!
