Charging harness - alternator connector

Does anyone know of a source for the 2 pin plug pictured below? Its located on the charging harness and plugs into the alternator. Mine became crispy and literally fell off of the wiring.

I'd like to find a new plug, or even an equivalent one from another car that I could splice onto my wiring harness. I've already rehabed the rest of the harness, I was just hoping this part would survive.

In general, FD connectors (as with most cars) are very hard to source and are generally sold wholesale by obscure (to the public) companies with minimum order quantities in the 1000s.

Someone else was looking for this in the parts for sale section last week. I think if you do a search for harness there you'll find it? There was a guy selling them for $20.

/\ I agree, try searching the 3rd gen parts section or PM "Fritz Flynn" "CrispyRX7" or "Rotary Experiment Seven" They have tons of good condition harness connectors available

I managed to de-pin mine and solder some fresh wires onto them. Everything seemed to go back ok, but I hate temporary fixes like that. What year, model subys did you find the plugs from? Might not be a bad idea to have a spare.

Thanks
