    This was part of the wiring on my Leer shell. I was cleaning up some of the wiring, needed to get the attached wires through a tiny hole, and could not for the life of me disconnect the pins on this connector, so I cut it off. Still can't get any of the pins out, so I'm looking to replace the connector with a new one. Anyone know what it's called? Note that three of the pins have a flat edge (one on top row, two on the bottom row), and the three others don't.

    Seems like a Molex? Can't seem the find the exact configuration/match online.

    Found a matching connector at a local electronics store. It's a Molex type made by Mate-N-Lock. Also found a "pin extractor" tool that allows these pins to be disconnected. Done & done.
