GBA LCD FFC Extender?

Post by gamemasterful »

Doing a recase mod with a GBA but in order to do it, I need to extend the ffc. Anyone know the pitch of the cable so I can do a manual search for one, or does anyone feel super nice and have a link? It doesn't need to be super long, but long enough to wrap up like the one in the ds does (phat I think, but it's not going in a ds case.)
Counted the pins, there are 32! If that helps.

Thanks so much!

I'm guessing this would be similar to the gamecube fcc extension mod for the cd drive.

Alright I'm pretty sure it's .5mm pitch.

Thinking about using these parts. Any comments?

HFF-36U-05-ND (Has 36 connections but I'm guessing a sharp new exacto blade might be able to persuade it to be otherwise.)

From digikey of course. Can't find comparable components on mouser.
