Description

This is an upgrade for those wanting to upgrade from Icarus 2.0 to 2.1 and want the new ribbon cable holder but don't want to reprint the whole carriage. 

To do so, cut off 42.0 mm from the old ribbon cable holder and glue this new part in place using super glue, it should be just as strong as the original part.

This is mostly for printers with a coupler on the Y motor that interferes with the ribbon cable as the printer homes.
