Get the custom ones from whiskerbox.  They work great on any newly received KMAC.  ;)

Open up your old rubber dome keyboards. I'm pretty sure they use the same cable connector.

this might be a lack of helpful, but i just used my one space filco cable to do this to my keyboard. http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=34531.0

the cable from a rubber dome HP keyboard doesn't seem to work, only 4 pins instead of the 5 the Filco cable had. 

edit: have a second majestouch 2 and tried the cable from that one, the old keyboard works fine -- i really do just need a replacement usb cable with the 5 pin connector ;{

Boost, I have a cable from a dismantled ABS M1. It's almost identical to a Filco cable including the cable support that goes into the back of the board. The differences are it has a braided sleeve over the cable and the usb connector is gold plated instead of bare metal. I've verified it works in my Filco 104. LMK if you want.
