I can someone help me source out a flat ribbon cable?. Its a nieces small electric keyboard. As in the picture total is 22pin x 23mm wide 100mm long but up to 200m should be fine (same side). I can find Hong Kong but I'm after UK if possible. I replaced a broken key but I didn't know the blue bit on the cable had slid off the back and the pins got chewed , I've tried flattening glueing but its not having any of it

after a bit of thought I followed this guide. I first multi metered and found pins 21- 22 dead so I cut back the cable about 10mm and scraped away the plastic and low and behold fixed
