Replacing the USB cable on my mouse

Does anyone know where I would be able to get a replacement usb cable for my mouse with the following internal connector (with the wires in the same order);

The mouse is out of warranty and it isn't made anymore so Logitech aren't offering any help.
I couldn't solder to save my life so a DIY job is out of the question.

I think you will struggle unless you can do it yourself by buying a cheap USB cable and fitting the connector yourself. One possibility is to buy another Logitech mouse and hope that they are still using the same connector. I would check for you but all my Logitech mice are wireless
Is there something special about the mouse that you need to keep that one rather than buy a new one.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
I had a beautiful Logitec wireless mouse where the USB receiver went on the blink. Complained to Logtec about non availability of replacements and got a brand new later model instead. Not quite as good as the original but as it was a failure of parts availability I was content.Truth always poses doubts & questions.

There are one or two on ebay from China.

Ordered!
I looked at ebay earlier but didn't scroll past the line stating 'Page 1 of 1' :embarasse0 -
thats a pretty standard connector,the wire colours for usb are almost universal, I would gamble on buying a cheap mouse you may find them the same.
Whats the prolem with the original wire, I assume you have snapped it or something?
just seen your last post, glad you got it sorted.0
