Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a soldering iron and doing it yourself? When it comes to soldering, it doesn't get much easier than soldering wires to SubD connectors.

Really, if it's only the 4 wires shown in the picture, then just do it yourself. It seems you have enough cable lenght so you can always strip it down a bit further if you don't succeed at the first try.

I wish it were just the 4 wires. It's the monitor lead for the Sony Trinitron monitor I've been using on my A1200T. I tripped over the lead and brought the whole lot crashing down  :-x

There's thicker core wiring inside and they all have to go on in a particular order.


Hmm, that sux somewhat harder indeed. However, if you're not too shaky it's still not VERY hard. Just find the correct pinouts somewhere and be a bit patient when soldering. Anyway: good luck in fixing it!
