DB25 and DB15 for LC logic board?

Hi all - I'm about to start a refurb on an LC (LC I). It's not here yet, but already I can see from the advance photos that the external SCSI DB25 and the video DB15 are rusted up. (The insides may be unsalvageable.. don't know yet...)

Has anyone already found replacement parts from Digikey or Mouser (or Arrow or .. or ..)? If not, I'll measure them up and post what I decide. Just itching to get started :geek:
 
They're easy to get I got a new video port from china a while back. The listing has male and female, 15 and 25. Excuse the UK link, you should be able to find it on .com too.


One before and three afters attached.

Oh, and preheat the board and take care - the two lugs are into the ground plain and tough to get the solder out of.
 
All true. These are fairly standard, but I expected some variation in the placement of the standoffs, and possibly the offset from the connector edge to the pins, etc.

Good work on replacing those DBs! That's what I was hoping to see after my own repair. But once the LC I arrived, I found the first unrepairable system of my life. It was a battery leak, and a very bad one. The V8, 68020, and two of the ROMs had many totally corrded pins - as in, nothing left. So I'll salvage what I can for another day.
