RANGE ROVER / BMW FLEX RIBBON SUPPLIER ?

[AvechuchoAxel]

I'm looking for a good supplier of the ribbons to repair the common problem of fadded pixels on BMW and RANGE ROVER.

I know there is a couple of options like CARBON or SILVER contacts.. I think that the silver contact is way much better and reliable. So any recommendation will be very appreciated.....

Regarding the needles:

Regarding the ribbon cables:
Mainly with the BMW X5's, I snap up any "new type" clusters (the ones with the silver rings around the dials) at my local BMW scrap yards. It works out a better deal for myself and the customer to rather "adapt" the new type clusters as opposed to the ribbon cr@p. I've had probably +- 30% success rate changing the ribbons. Too much hassle.

(Old type and new type clusters are basically the same, except the lcd's are not press fitted with ribbons any more. They got a flat plug on the pcb side now).
