C500 spade wire connector

One of my spade connectors broke to the c500. Does anyone know this part number or a place to find them?

Update- 6-24-2015:

I took an alligator clip, took it apart, used a dremel to remove teeth and extra material until it was very close to the original pin. I pinched the wire into the end and voila it works. Sorry no pic I was in a rush to get it fixed so car would start.

That's a pretty neat workaround you cooked up! I hope it stays in place and keeps working for you. Nice job!

Yea I was surprised I actually realized the opportunity when I looked at the alligator clip. So far it has stayed tight. It made the trip to Vegas and back :)
