Leopard 8 Pole Terminal Connector

Has anyone had to replace the 8 Pole Terminal Connector on their Leopard Key Start engine? It is on the wiring harness that comes out of the bottom of the iginition. I found one at AutoZone (link below) but I was wondering if anyone has any better suggestions?

We have this connector and any connector on the wiring system in stock. Also available at any IAME dealer.

Jim,

Don't you need a tool to get the pins out of the connector? If so, do you have that tool? I have the same connector with one bad pin and it is good to see you have the connectors.

It is designed to go onto fresh wire and lug. We have picked out a bad pin before with a pick. But 75% of the time we damage the connector and have to cut it off and start over.
