I purchased the flat mylar cable from Digikey a very long time ago. It 
is now listed as obsolete.
The dimensions I have for the connector are 1.70 inches wide, thickness 
0.015 inches. Traces are 0.075 inch wide and 0.100 inches center to 
center (pitch).
The length is for you to decide for your needs.
