Default broke injector harness

Need some help. I broke the plastic injector harness. What is the best way of fixing this? Do I need to buy a completly new harness or can I just buy the one injector harness and connect in on the the existing wires?

Ecklers has those connectors. I believe you just cut off the old connector as close as possiable, crimp the new connector on. With a little care it looks like new.

Depending on how bad it is...If it will still slide on the injector, you can take a black ziptie and zip tie it to the injector. Seen this done alot on some fleet vehicles we work on without any problems.

Echlers does have the pigtail - I bought one a couple of months ago. It may be possible to remove the old metal connectors from your broken plastic connector and install them in the new plastic part. That way you don't have to cut the wires.
