Just trying to complete my first pack for H-ween. Have the pack built and painted, but I am just missing the [ribbon cable](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack/ribbon-cable). Does anyone know where I can buy a cable (seeing as I only need 3 feet). All the people listed on the parts page (Dana Wheels) no longer sell it, or no longer have valid email addresses.

Secondly, apart from the instructions on this site for the lights, does anyone have a schematic, or additional instructions on how one can put together cyclo light scheme using LEDS?
