Prusa Mini+ switch cable

Hi, 

Trying to move the on/off switch for the Mini+ to the front. What cables should I be using for this and where can I get these cables? Also, for the spade terminals, what size should I be using? 

Thanks,

Here is a thread on the power cable:

I would replace the whole cable to get a better connection and avoid incomplete soldering.  

For USB, almost any USB extension cable will work.  The link is on Amazon, but you can find them elsewhere.

I used 16 AWG (American Wire Gauge) twin electrical wire and four 16-14 gauge (blue) female quick connectors. Strip a few mm off the ends of the wire and crimp on the quick connectors. See https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/67778
