If you end up with the GPT S4 BV all switches are off (1-10)

but if you locate the earlier model switch 1 to 6 are on and 7 to 10 off.

attached is some info on the S4

MK5 also can use WBA bv if you have correct assembly frame for the machine, this would be the best way to go as the GPT software upgrades are done via a download key which is a few $$$$$, check out the web site        http://www.gptworld.com/GPT.htm.

Never seen one as all my Aristocrats have the GPT S4, but would imagine it would be this (attachment) you would need to also get hold of the Bill Entry for the door panel and the correct harness.

WBA frame is basically two flat plates with spacers at the top and bottom. Not hard to fabricate yourself. However, you would need a few extra parts to make it a full GPT replacement, like the JCM 'G-Pattern Bezel' and a JCM 300-100037 board and harness set. Best to stick with the GPT unless you can pick the WBA kit up as a lot.

<edit> and if you had the hopper shown in Ozzy's picture above, you'd have to work on the bowl, because the WBA needs a cutout about 2 inches deeper. The bowl is ABS and can be softened with a heat gun and bent by hand.
