Wanted: any old (dead) mobo to cannibalise video connector

In fact, if any of you are any good at desoldering I just need the video connector.
Someone just dropped their box around for 'repair' saying it doesn't display anything any more - not suprised, half the pins inside the connector have been irredemably bent.
A good use of an old dead board, think of it like a donor card.

Hi got a 1.4 dead mobo you're welcome to have if you're happy to pay for postage.

my skills involving a soldering iron are terrible and I would have preferred to send across the entire board which obviously would be a bit pricier on postage. If you don't get what you need just give me a shout

BTW, an update. Clabs sent me a connector (thanks!). I soldered it in. The board works. Happy outcome!
