Ah, like an amp pin pusher if you're an electronics techie type. I'll
stop at NAPA tomorrow and see what they have.

You seem to be far more motivated than I am, or you don't have so many

eeuroparts.com (notice two e's at the start). For current models such
as this, they're a great source. Good source for exploded diagrams for
reference too, far as that goes. (no affiliation with them, satisfied
customer, blah blah standard disclaimer stuff here)
Do you have pics of your project? I've got webspace if you want a place
to post 'em.
