Hi gang, I'm looking for a male 25 pin d-sub IDC connector that doesn't have the ears for mounting hardware. I know if I use a plastic shell part I can trim off the ears but I'm hoping there's a part out there that has no ears... (Or whatever those little things with the holes in them are called). And no, you can't just snap off the metal ones, the ears are what are holding the two stamped metal parts together. Thanks!

I think you already have the answer, trimming plastic ones, or maybe some metal ones use a crimped shell to avoid a two-part assembly so you can cut those without them falling apart. I thought the D connector's spec included the ability to use bolts to retain a connection, so I don't think there is any other kind. I've never seen one, anyway. I've seen many diverse forms of them, but they all inlude those lugs for bolt retention. Some will be easier to adapt than others, so take your pick.
