Can't find stupid FFC. But I have an idea

[Uranium-235]

I've worn out the connectors on the FFC for my yamaha from the front panel board to the preamp board. It's 152mm length, 1mm pitch, 32 connectors, opposite side connectors. Mouser has them all on order, with 1000 minimum order. I've looked through google, and found few leads to being able to get them here in the US for those specs.

could I get two 16's with the same specs and place them side by side? would they overlap the connectors on the edge next to each other and create a single insulated contact?

Everyone's saying it's all 0.5mm, however the connector it goes into is 1mm pitch. Manufacturers are advertising these cables for 12 cents each if they are 0.5mm pitch. I can't even find this cable anywhere, there is one website that said they had them, but don't anymore.

Also, if you want 1000 cables, lotta places willing to make them at 12 cents each at that quantity.

Re: Can't find stupid FFC. But I have an idea

could I combine two 16's without an overlap in the middle?
