Gareth,
Alternatively, could maybe get you the connectors much cheaper if you want to do the ballache soldering work yourself

hmm.. not looking good Gareth.. our 'kit' includes adaptors for 3 or 4 systems, and you really don't want to know the price. I was hoping it was perhaps available in the individual components to just get the parts you want..
offer still stands for both halves of the connectors if you fancy a bit of soldering

I see you didnt damage your sense of humour in any way...


Gareth,
Although its tricky, if you strip the plug down and remove the plugs giode rails, there is a handy meter probe access hole just above the pin numbers on the side of each pin you know?
