Sharp DV Camcorder probs.

Hi,

I have an old Sharp VL-PD1 camcorder I use for videoing during track events in my 7.

I noticed it got a bit fussy when trying to connect it to the PC, being as it wasn't the main camera didn't mind taking it apart

I discovered that a plastic ribbon connector is damaged, I've been trying to locate a spare part for it without success. Is there anybody who might know a place for spares in the UK or where I might be able to buy a broken Sharp camcorder so I can rob the part if neccesary.

Many thanks

Carl
