Looking for a connector

Hey everyone. My carputer fits inside a double-din opening in my car. I want to be able to slide the unit into the opening to dock it. I need around 20 conductors to do this. The connector must be large enough to tolerate the unit not being aligned 100% correctly.

I looked at 24pin centronics connectors but I cannot find them anywhere! Does anyone else know of a connector with (about) the same number of pins? I don't want to use a D-sub because they don't seem 'rigid' enough for this application.

Thanks!
