I kinda screwed my MintyPi Lite ribbon cable and was wondering where to get a new one if at all possible

I found a good replacement on DIgikey.ca The original is 10-conductor on 1mm centers, about 2" long. It appears to be a custom made one.
The following part number will work.
Molex 0982670247
Digikey.ca part number is WM14123-ND
It's 2" long
They're about $2, with no minimum order and reasonable shipping.
Oh, and don't forget to trim the Pi Zero end as shown on one of the videos, the exposed trace is about twice as long as it needs to be.
