Does anyone know of the proper name for this "z" style connector used in Mortal Kombat and many other 90's Midway games? They used .100 IDC connectors and then a piece like this to connect them together in the harness. This pic is from pinballlife.com and they only have this 2 pin version available, plus I think it's the slightly larger .156 size. I like to keep things original where possible, but I won't waste a ton of time trying to track them down since this little bit of wiring is all that's keeping me from getting my MK running. I also don't see a place that really has the IDC connectors. Seems that both these things may be obsolete? If so time for plan B. :) Thanks all.

Okay a little google groups searching on the pinball group and it turns out these things are made by ITW Pancon (who knew?). I've found a few places that sell them but of course they have a bullshit 2500 minimum order so that option is out. I'm wondering if I can just get a straight .100 head and maybe snip off the plastic piece so I have room to slide both connectors onto it?
