    I bought the Xbox 360 Slim and noticed that it didn't come with HD AV cables...which I am very irritated by. My old cables won't fit because Microsoft is a bunch of meanies. So, my question is:

    What are some good HD AV cables that I can use on my xbox 360 Slim that aren't mrore than $20?

    I want to buy them online since the local stores don't seem to be helping me much. I prefer to use Buy.com for my online orders.

    An example of what the cables look like

    The point of me asking the question is because the xbox slim has an odd protrusion on it that blocks the old Regular xbox 360 cables from fitting. so...those cables are the same as the ones that I have so it wouldn't work.

    eBay
    Amazon

    Both are official, but you can find generic brands for even less on eBay.

    Technically, Component TVs are also HD. Just an older HD.

    Use a screwdriver and pry apart the gray plastic shell around the end of the old AV cable that plugs into the Xbox. Be careful not to ruin the switch, and it should work perfectly. Cheap way, all the way.
