Re: [coreboot] Where do I get cables that can fit a SOIC8 clip?

Thanks martin but the clip I have needs the smaller cables like the ones 
in this photo as they didn't space the connectors enough for dupont cables.

Where do I get cables that can fit a SOIC8 clip?

There are none cables that just fit. You have to solder (like its been done by chinese workers on the ready ones you can get).
You can get soic8 and soic16 presoldered.
For example you can get the 16 with all 16 pins soldered here: www.ebay.com/itm/321899798260
Or soldered to fit on normal 8-pin flasher (the useless pins are simply not beeing soldered): www.ebay.com/itm/142241743115

Or get Pomona clips (5250 and 5252), then the dupont cables will fit.
But imo soldering is more reliable, which is good, because when
flashing externally there are quite some things which can cause
problems.

Where do I get cables that can fit a SOIC8 clip?

:( I Appreciate the buying advice but the issue is that I have an 
*extra* crappy clip I need the little wires for, as stated before I 
already bought another one that came with wires.

I lack the skills to properly solder something that small, and they are 
SMALL, each wire is 1/32" with 1/32" spacing.

I bought my cableless clip at a local electronics store, then they 
refused to take it back when I couldn't find any wires ($10 wasted) - it 
obviously isn't ran by one of us because there is not even the smallest 
level of curation no wonder those spots go out of business.
