Minwah- you mentioned the automotive ones... I remember those from my restoration days but I can not for the life of me find them on jcwhitney or similar places... did you have links to those? perhaps a quantity order would make them reasonable. Thanks, Rock |

Then again I suppose you could use a jamb tac in the cabinet, and just make some contacts for the underside of the control panel, using screws or whatever. |

They might be ok if your dealing only with usb (5 connections only) but I have about 50 in my cabinet right now... That would cost more then just buying encoders for each control panel. |

The plus of the jamb tacs is that you wouldn't need both male & female, assuming you could make something for the springloaded contacts to butt up against. |
