Good find, they should do the trick. Now then, when you say 'different 
planar display' ? ;-)

Those are basically wires. I use these: 
https://www.digikey.com/products/en?keywords=ed90101-nd. I would think that 
Harwin would make something similar.

I'm about to try them for a different planar display. Hopefully I can get 
them inserted without bending them all up. That would be a tragedy.

Subject: [neonixie-l] 15 digit IV-17 VFD

The vexing problem I had with this design, is that the HK16K33s I/O lines are 
supposed to float on initialization, to change the slave address. But the 
inputs to the 74HC04s are held high for the digits, and low for the segments, 
so the address would not change. I ended up using a separate I2C bus for the 
second HK, and now everything works perfectly. I just have to build a few more 
tube boards, and add the rest of the APA106s.

They fit standard double row 2.54mm pitch header pins that you can buy in
lengths of 20/40 and cut to size...

Very nice job with the overall construction. What are the dimensions of the
