Pep boys has them I think....you could always try the dealer, or do an online search as there are a lot of places that sell electrical connectors/pins.

all gm dealers have a set of trays that have lots of connectors in them, ours are back in the tool room for the techs to use for repairs. they are never charged out on the customers repair orders. you need special tools to dissamble the connector and to install the replacement end on the wires. if not done correctly the wire may pull out or cause a open circut down the road. the easy fix is to go to the wrecking yard, get a replacement connector w/some wire on it. splice it onto the harness using some heat shrink splice connectors, they work like butt connectors but are water tight and cant be pulled apart after shrinking down due to the glue that heats up and melts through the connector. they were made for air bag wiring repairs but work great for all typs of quick permanent repairs. hear is a pic so you can print it out to take with you.

Which connector are you talking about? There are 100 different sizes, styles and shapes of connectors that GM has. If I have a bad connector I usually buy a whole new plug and connector from GM and solder and shrink wrap the connections. I always have leftover pieces plus I have an entire junk engine harness I use to mend bad harnesses with. Is the connector a weatherpack connector and a silicone seal? I might have an entire connector if it's one I haven't robbed already.
