Replacing the 30 pin ribbon connector in the ipod. Does anyone know where can I purchase one?

Just FYI for someone trying this...opening the case is challenging but not as tough as you'd think. Just be patient and work slowly.


Also, I first looked at several youtube videos on what to do. None of them (well eventually one did) mentioned that before you connect the 30 pin ribbon connector to the Iflash you must "lift up" the hardly visible black lock down piece. I think that caused me to damage the connector. Once you do, inserting the ribbon and closing down the connector is easy. I ended up using a magnifying glass to do this.
