Anyone know if there is a IDC .300 16 pin female socket out there? I want a simple way to put a 8 pos DIP switch on about 18 inches of ribbon cable, no soldering.

Perhaps something like two of these tightly side by side?

two regular 0.1" IDC DIL (pin header) sockets with a machined pin wire-wrap socket inserted, and the DIP switches plugged into that.
the pins are the wrong shape (round) and the wrong surface (silver/tin) so it may not work reliably long-term.
