Default Replace turn signal - Moving wire connector

2019 Low Rider FXLR. Need to replace front turn signal. New signal came with wire but no connector to wiring loom. I de-pinned the old connector to move to the new signal wire. Anyone how to deal with the metal tips that I need to put on the new wires? I assume I can remove / reuse the old tips. Is there a part number for the tips?
Or should I have just cut and soldered? Thank you.

You need new terminal sockets, don`t bother with the old ones.

PN:72910-11

You can get them from the dealer, or any online electrical outfit that sells Deutsch connector components.

You want the stamped and formed type connectors, not the solid type.

Deutsch socket crimp type

Just fyi. Here are the parts I used. It is really tedious to pin the wires and fit through the housing flap and weather seal. To be honest, if I had it to do over again, I would avoid the purchase and simply cut the old connector off leaving a few inches of wire and solder/heat wrap the new wires to it.
