In response to your inquiry, mylar isnot a tape it is a plastic material that I had on hand and used, it is non conductive and is available in so many places and you probably have it in your house. Have you ever bought a pack of batteries or any other product with that annoying plastic -see through material that you had to tear to get at the product? Just make sure that it is not to thick, but thick enough for the flex cable and that plastic can fit within the connector, This slides on top of the flex cable if the contacts are facing down once you trim the plastic to the flex cable dimensions. The electrical tape holds this in place! Joe Collins
For all those who have broken that retaining flap, I had the same problem. It can be resolved by using a thin Mylar strip, cut to the dimensions of digitize r connector, then slide it underneath the connector. It will hold the cable. collins_joseph@hotmail.com
