Electrical bits needed

I have a base model 2007 Fit with manual door mirrors. I purchased two electrical mirrors and the dash switch from a scrap yard. They refused to sell me the 3 plugs of the harness that plug into the mirrors and the switch saying that I would have to buy the entire harness at some astronomical price. I can make up connectors for the door mirrors. The problem is the dash board switch. It is a 13P Honda connector and is not available at the dealer, he wants to sell me a harness too. Can anyone identify a source for wiring bits. I need the plastic male connector and the metal blades that contact the pins in the switch. If I could find a scrap yard willing cut the the harness it would be great. I have looked all over the internet with no success.
Cheers.

Update:

The local Honda counter man looked in his box of spare electrical bits today and low and behold : pins, lots of them, of different sizes, male ,and female. No plastic housings though. Tomorrow I will check the pin size. He is waiting for a reply from Honda Canada concerning the availability of housings. Things may improve next week when the regular parts guy gets back from vacation.

There is a 13P connector, not plugged into anything, taped to the harness under the left side of the dash near the driver's door. It has one red wire, to the main harness, which is powered up when the ignition is turned on. It gets its power through fuse number 22. The local guys don't know what it is for. It is not a diagnostic plug point. As it is of the same size as the plug to the mirror switch, I may just cut the red wire, buy some pins and wire up the switch.
