Where can I buy one of these?

Ok so I swapped out my original dlx cluster for an SR5 cluster... everything went smoothly expect I can't hookup my new oil pressure sensor

the oil pressure sensor looks like this:


and uses a connector like this:


Sadly my harness has a simple female spade connector on it, and not the dual-function slide on connector like the picture above.

So my question is this: where can I buy one of those connectors so I can fix my harness and get an oil pressure reading?

I've already asked people in a few part-out threads in the marketplace but most don't want to cut up an otherwise perfectly good harness (I can't really blame them either).

I bought the electrical connector or had one already, cut the wires, spliced it in.
Just an ordinary female spade iirc works fine.

not an ordinary female spade... it's a circular slide on terminal..... the sensor for the idiot light uses a spade.

I tried modifying 5 different style spade terminals I had on hand to work with it to no avail.

the OEM connector is designed to work with both a spade and this circular connector, but my harness has been modified so I'm missing that connector.

it slides on from the side like this:

Sorry, brain fart. I was thinking of the starter spade connector. Not enough coffee yet this morning.

Yep, that little connector is going to be interesting to find except off a junker.

yeah, I wish I knew what that type of connector was called so I could at least have something to search by.

it also bothers me that electrical connectors are rarely available through dealer part catalogs, it's not like they don't need to be replaced too. /rant

EDIT I think I found it!!!

http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/...2fJvjf6BpCQ%3d

It's a Delphi 56 series connector, same series used on the clutch switch, the cigarette lighter switch and a number of other "spade" style connectors.

this specific one is Part Number: 02977253

that's just the housing though. I still need to find the matching pin

-----
EDIT again:
ok, don't order that one, it's missing the slot, the pin is definitely the right type though
