Anyone know someone who can supply these?

Local electronics suppliers Jaycar and DS only have 41526 DINs.

Standard 180 degree five pin din plugs will work. I made lots of
video cables for members of my Commodore club, about 20 years ago. Close
to 100, because I only have a couple left from the case of 100.

You don't need 8 pin DIN, just use a 5 pin instead. In any case, I'm pretty
certain I bought some 8 pin DIN plugs from Jaycar just recently...

There are two types of 8 pin din plugs. The wrong one will break the
video output connector on the C64 & 128 computer. They used the one the
did so the power supply couldn't be plugged into the video connector.
The proper 8 pin din has the outer pins in a 'u' shape, while the wrong
is in a broken circle. The one on that page looks to be the wrong type.

Should you have the wrong plug, just clip the 2 NC (no connection)
pins. At least that's what Raymond Carlsen suggests.
That's what I did, or use a 5 pin plug - no probs.

Agreed. Quote from http://sta.c64.org/legend.html#din8plug :
---
This is a DIN41524 type ("262-degree") plug where pins 7 and 8 are
"out of circle". On the more common DIN45326 type ("270-degree") plug,
the seven outer pins form a circle, which is mechanically
incompatible.

I hope this helps the original poster with finding the proper plugs.

Not if you want to get s-video.
And there are two types of 8 Pin din plugs, 41524 and 41526. The C64 takes
41524 (240 degree).

No, wait, I'm wrong. the extra pins aren't needed.

No, wait again, I'm right and wrong.

I need the central pin to get s-video, so I need at least 6 pins, but I can
remove the extra pins on the 'wrong' 8 pin dins.

Arrrg. I wanted these for a megadrive RGB cable as well, which does use the
extra pins.

Jeez, that brings back memories! Last time I needed to connect to a C64,
I soldered a cable direct to the PCB.

It is for this very reason that my 128 tower has RCA jacks on the back for
S-Video and audio, just so I can use normal A/V cables for a change (I seem
to have a habit of losing monitor cables).

I've had enough of this hassle of trying to find some weird connector. ;)

Hrm. I couldn't possibly comment...

Ditto. A soldering iron fixes any of those kinds of problems.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately I'm leery about paying $13.00 postage for
a $2 part.

$13 postage can't be right, I paid less then that for shipping 25 EPROMS
from the US to AU.

That is how ebay works, Purchase price is their profit and "Postage"
covers all their cost.
