Good find. The pitch is ok, number of contacts is correct, but the 
distance between top and bottom contacts seem too wide. The plug is also 
too thick (7mm vs. available 3.6mm) and can't be filed down without 
loosening the contacts.

This is the tech drawing for the 71439 series for comparison:

The plastic is pretty soft, and cutting them to size requires no special 
tools besides a wire cutter or box cutter, a simple file (nail file is 
fine).
