I was just looking at Molex 51391-0419, EZ-Conn series. That's a 4 circuit, right-angle, 1.5mm pitch, smt saddle mounts onto .031 thick pcb. Overall height is .244, but only part of that is above the board surface, and part is below. Mating connector is an IDC type, says only requires standard pliers to crimp on. Positive latch.
