A friend of mine developed these 3D printable ROM./PCB carriers that fit the Molex sockets in the TRS-80 model 100 et. al. There is a link on the page below to the Github repo for the project.

He was nice enough to offer to develop carriers for this Molex socket variation. I do not have an original ROM carrier to measure up though, so we are starting from the design he has already done for the Molex 78802 socket (which he found datasheets for) and measurements I am making of the socket in my HHC. Being able to measure up a real module would be a big help. Of course, the new models will be added to his repo and open for all to use.

I am not in the USA but near enough on the East Coast of Canada, I could give you one of the EPROM capsules I have, I got several with an ex insurance salesman's HHC. send me a private message if you are interested.
