As I said, I don't have the mice, the cables nor the bulkhead plates (that's
what a 'cab kit' is). I have a few keyboards, but none that aren't attached
to a VT220 or similar. Someone in Ohio gave me a box of Qbus framebuffer
boards... more than I will ever use. I don't even have a set of the
accessories for myself. I'd love to have a hockey puck or two, just for
my VAXstation 2000s.

Also, I'm about 12,000 miles away from my collection now. I couldn't even
look for those bits if I wanted to.

Sorry I can't help.
