i just took delivery of the cables i needed from www.rswww.com thats radio shack - they delivered them in about 20 hours flat and i didnt even select any priority shipping when i ordered.
maybe now everyone can calm down about FFC problems on monitors!!!!
i got five x 16 way 6 inch ffc's and 10 zif connectors!! so i may have some to sell if anyone else needs them

yes i was just excited there i have been looking through radio shack and radio spares websites for a few hours so please excuse me
i have just spent another few hours installing the FFC cable and its working beautifully now, i have the original tiny little b*****d jammed into a zif connector with one of the 6 inch ffc's and then that one goes straight into where the little one used to.
a word of warning - i first tried daisychaining 2 6 inch FFC's together (to make it uber easy to connect the boards) but the signal was ruined (multi coloured lines on screen) - although im not sure why this happened it was fixed upon replacing the daisy chain with a single ffc.
i am so pleased with my results - maybe ill post some pictures tommorow. the picture is so clear and focussed and bright and...... ok back to watching my movie
