I got lucky and struck a deal with a nice guy in the UK, Matt Adams, for a nice used and clearcoated Dr Who Playfield. It was cheap enough that it was worth pursuing and I received my playfield last night! Pics:

Overall the playfield is nice. The clearcoat isn’t perfect but I’m not complaining. It is a a great playfield to swap in for this project.
I have removed the wiring harness from the old playfield and cleaned it, it is now hanging up to dry. Tonight I will start on putting it back onto the new playfield. The harness was separated into three parts: The switch harness, General Illumination(GI)/Lamp harness and the Solenoid harness. It will be reinstalled in that order. Pictures:
