Sorry Marc, I did see your reply when I was at work but didn't have time to post.
I reckon you should have a go at routing the USB thru the ribbon, I don't think such a short run will be a problem. If it were me, I would simply cut a good quality shielded USB cable and solder the ends to either side of the ribbon.
USB cables have only 4 wires, Red(+5v), White(Data-), Green(Data+) and Black(GND)
If you space the Data+ and Data- lines with a ground (or two if you have enough spare lines), you should have no drama's. Maybe some ali foil shielding over the ribbon too, connected to GND at one end only.
If it doesn't work well(I'll be surprised), you're only out the $ for the cut USB cable.
