Where to buy IDC replacements ?

[Supremicus]

Hey guys is there anywhere locally that sell IDC replacement connectors or the molex crimp equiv + the board headers ? Or will i have to get from overseas ?

IDC = Cheap connectors used to speed up production.

Use Trifuricon - much better - especially for high current applications such as GI.

Our sponsors sell them !

Yes mate - I once covered it for Paul here;

That was from GPE, but you can get most of the bits from RTBB/PSP.

you need .156 for GI etc. .100 for switch matrix.

Wayne at the PBF sells the genuine IDC & I can understand you wanting to use them rather than the other type which may be "better" but aren't original and in my opininon look fake (shit)

I use original IDC stuff in my 'high end' restoration work, in home use the IDC should be fine for the remainder of the game's 'retirement' ;)

For the games I fix for route operators, I use the trifurcons etc.

Have to agree with nino here, nothing wrong with changing a part if it proves more reliable and especially if it cant be seen.

And better than running bright orange wires from the back of the driver board! (Like some wanker did to my PZ...)
