Just an update.
My last order for the 10 slot connector arrived yesterday so was able to replace the 5 and 10 slot ribbon connectors for the left side panel since mine were desoldered and extended with wire as a last resort repair.
The installation went perfectly well and took about 2 hours taking my time. Paul's panels work and fit 100 percent.
If you need fresh 5 or 10 position tyco connectors, I have about eight 5 slot and about twenty 10 slot spare connectors due to minimum ordering requirements. Drop me a line, I'd be happy to throw one in the mail.
