Alternator wiring

Hi guys,
In need of some information for my REW swap into an FB. Is there a separate alternator wiring harness like my FB or is it part of the REW front harness? Also, is the plug/connector to the alternator generic enough where I can find it from another Mazda model? If so, can someone take a pic of it so I can see? If not, anyone know where I can find one? Thanks.

while digging through the for sale forum, i noticed there is a "charge harness" which includes terminal to the battery, fuse box, etc., so that won't do me any good. will keep researching to find posts on how to use existing harness and probably upgrade some of the wiring to handle the higher amp rating.

but if anyone can provide me info on the FD plug to the alternator, that would be great. i'd rather not use spade connectors.

The plug can be found on other Mazdas....and anything else that uses a Mitsubishi alternator from the 90s or 2000s will probably have a suitable plug. For my REPU, I snagged the plug and a length of harness off a Millennia.
