I'm looking for the 50 pin FFC Cable. The white one with the blue "ears" in the photo. I also stupidly broke the tan plastic clips that secure them to the board as well. I was able to make it work, but if you have the cable and/or the clips I'd gladly pay you for them!!

The video cables and one set of the clips are spoken for, other set still available.
The issue with these cables is that they don't have the "ears" on the ends so they're technically a mm too narrow. I was fortune enough that it only took me two tries to line it up so that the picture showed correctly.
It sounds like I have similar problems. When I opened up the PCM and released the OEM cables the grey "door" that helps to hold the cables in place pretty much disintegrated on two ribbon on the original board. I have power to Joyeauto and power to the back of the PCM but not to the screen. At first the tiny lights on the CD player were lit, but not they are not at all. One TINY pin got bent when I push the ribbon in too hard, but I think that I bent it back close to how it was originally. Is there anything I can use between the ribbon and the pins to make sure that they are connecting perfectly? I would hate to have to find a new old PCM and start over. Thanks!
Try adjusting the cables. I was using 2 aftermarket cables that had a little give on each side. It took 2 tries to get them lined up so the screen would appear. Maybe try new cables altogether. I used the ones from Amazon.
Hi I am in dire need of the 30pin FCC cable and the corresponding connector plug. You mention that you have spare ones. Do you still have those available and be willing to send it to The Netherlands? I will gladly pay of course.

I ended up using some purchased from Amazon. They aren't as heavy duty as the OEM cables, but they did work. I was able to get my broken "connector plug" to hold the cable well enough so it works. I wasn't able to find any spares anywhere. If you do find a place drop the company name in the comments. I'm sure that will help future owners attempting this!
I haven't heard anything back from Anthony nor Joyeauto (who I attempted to reach out to directly). I purchased the kit through Auto Amateur who's also trying through his connection. I'm not holding my breath. With the amazon cable now working I'm not as pressed to find the OEM cable, but would still like it. The amazon one is etremly flimsy compared to the OEM (and Joyeauto) cables.
do you have a link to the Amazon cable you bought that I am assuming came with the replacement plastic clip connector? I too broke one of the plastic clips during my joyeauto install.

No, it didn't come with the plastic clip unfortunately. I actually never did find a place that had them. The broken one still seemed to hold well enough to use. No issues yet.

Out of my depth, but have repaired a few basic electronic devices so have messed with connectors, etc.
Given this is simply one end broken, couldn't you preform (maybe with some heat) a piece of thin wire tie to conform to the top end of the connector, then superglue there and where it lays flat on the pcb. Wouldn't take much glue. At issue is it shaking loose, right?
And, if this would work on one end, why not both ends?
I get to join the club. Installing Isudar board into my 981's PCM. Ive reassembled with only one side clipped in and CD Player won't turn on, and on bumpy roads the whole PCM cuts in and out, even reboots. I thought I could get by with the little pressure 1 clip intact provides but no luck.
Did anyone find a source for a 50 pin clip (FCP as I'm learning!)
I am going to order these 2 and see if I get lucky scavenging the clip.

are tiny and the daisy chain boards are top flip not snap type. I think this part is going to be impossible to find. On a PCB repair forum they suggested hot melt glue.
I’ll be doing that and at least if it needs to be removed hot glue isn't permanent
