For anyone who doesn't know what these look like

end of the wire. Colour is almost always cream (or
murky yellow if
they've been in the sun) or white for the CPC ones.
Basically I need one for my A3000... the blasted PS2Mouse adapter

Alternatively if anyone has a chassis-mount 9-pin mini-DIN socket in

motherboard for an 'alternate' mouse port.. I just need the connector)
Could you change both parts of the connector (on the machine and the
mouse/adapter) and use, say, a DE9?
