atari 2600 rgb 8 pin to 9 pin

Hi guys, I have Worthington's rgb mod in my heavy atari 2600. Currently it is using a 8 pin mini din, but I want to use genes cables (HD retrovision cables) and therefore need it to be a 9 pin mini din. Is there any easy way to go about this? I can not find 9 pin mini din that is in the same style as what came with the kit. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Bulk head mount 9pin are hard to find. I know the @SainT was able to get some somewhere as his 7800GD carts use them. But orders I've tried to place for them, all end up getting cancelled by the seller without any reason given. But if you can find one then yes...

 

Now...that said. in order to use HDRetrovision cables, you will need to wire up the composite output from the RGB board to pin 4 on the 9pin. HDRetrovision cables, Rad2x, and likely others, use the composite video signal for the sync. Plus, you can use genesis composite cables too if you wanted to get video that way in a pinch.
