    Sounds like you got fancy.
    I just took a 40 pin wire wrap DIP socket, soldered on the five wires needed and rand them to a the project board.
    Made another with a 5 pin socket on the end of the wires to plug onto a 5 pin header kind of like the PicKit2 does.
    Just be sure to kill the power to the board before programming.

    Hi, Dave ...

    It's more than possible, I've seen it years ago !!!

    there are 5 unused goldened pads on the Picstart PCB that are the ICSP 5 signals.

    Just think they are NOT aligned in the correct sequence !!! EEK !!!

    Will that make the code run backwards??

    Default ICSP Adapter

    Ok here is what Im going to do! I found a .100 ICD DIP flat cable plug @ mouser and jameco so i will use flat ribbon cable or I will try 28 AWG stranded wire to a .100 single row connector, I was having boards made for my project and added this connector and a diode in the MCLR line have it runing on my desk works great but there are wires everywhere. hate that! This is a LanC board with Pir sensor and Serial input/output
