Notorious Light Switch!!!!

Help!

The good ol' Dodge boys have struck again! Had to drive home from work this morning (1:30am) by way of emergency flashers and flashlight. (still had headlights though!) The problem is the connector that plugs onto the headlite switch is melted around the pink/red and blk/ylw wires. I need to find a new connector block if that is possible.

I'm going to try Napa. Got no place else to turn to, the *******'s parts dept. won't be open 'til Monday.
Any other suggestions?

P.S. Going to wire in a heavy duty contactor so the running lights
current goes thru it instead of the little puny 18ga. wire that is rated at 8-10 amps. Drawing board engineers; Don't ya just love 'em?

If anyone has a fix you can pm me or if you live in the area you can call me at 805-659-2614.

Thanks
