GM also used a lot of those connectors - try one of the local GM dealers if
Chrysler doesn't work out. If you can get the shell, the pins from the old
one will slip right in - but you'll probably have to destroy the old on to
get them out. Without the (expensive) removal tool, they are a bear to
pull out.
