You're looking for a cable with "long throw".

In addition to a replacement KG cable you can look for the cable used for the mamiya RZ mirror up option.

Any tips where to buy ?
Long throw cables? ..

i've now found in my Old Sinar Case a cable that works :),
But now i would buy a few to have in stock, as they get old quick :p

I just unscrewed one of these from a lens and screwed it into a one shot, works great the red one stands out so your not hunting for it in the dark.
