Default Switch Connectors

Hi all, I have a problem! I was changing out my bars tonight to Wild 1 560's. I haven't gotten got to ride it yet but I love em. My problem is that one of the little connectors at the end os wires on the tank end of my right switches broke off when I was putting them back in the little plastic connector housing. Does anybody know where I can get just that little connector, so I can crimp on a new one?

Thanks

Have you tried the dealership yet? I find that they usualy have those little unusual pieces that I might need. At least the dealership that I deal with hasen't let me down yet. The thing is that if it will break in your garage, chances are it has broken in the dealers shop as well and they need these parts for replacements. I like to keep a good working relationship with the service and parts departments for just that reason. Give them a try first. If the don't have just the little connector they can probably come up with a solution of some kind. Good luck and I hope you get to ride soon.

I had the same thing happen to me on the back lights and I just cut and soldered the wire to the wire on the back side of the connector. Works fine and if you ever need to remove it you can snip it or unsolder it. I just did not want to drive to the dealership at the time and after talking to them they did not have it anyway.
