    Just posted this info on Toughbook Talk and figures I would share it here as well.

    Digikey part # HFF-50U-02-ND - cable flat flex 50pos 0.5mm

    A replacement for the stock FFC that connects the GPS/WWAN/BT daughter card to the main system board. A bit stiffer and about 5/16" longer. Only a couple of dollars each and quick, easy access in North America.

    Just a little FYI. Didn't find any info on replacement daughter card FFC here, or TBT, so I thought I would share the info.

    If you haven't already ordered them... I can throw a few ribbon cables into the parts package. I think I have a few 40 & 50 sizes...

    Ordered, installed and verified they work before I posted the info.

    Sure, that would be good. I am looking at putting together possibly 3 more CF-18's, so a couple extras are welcome. Thanks.
