    Does anyone have or know where I can find the wide ribbon cable to connect an OEM GPS module to the cf18?

    Thanks

    I have not found one yet, however I haven't had a lot of time to look around so if anyone has one that they can part with let me know and let me know how much. If I'm not mistaken I think it is a 40mm cable thats all I know.

    I'm also eye balling an OEM antenna for it on ebay, the one I have has a the connector seperated from the wire and I'm not overly optomistic about it working properly if I was to recrimp it.

    Are you willing to part it up or do also have parts of a kit?

    I'd want to sell the whole kit and am about to list it on ebay. But if all you need is the ribbon cable you should be able to get one easily.
