    Well, I had a small fender-bender and with the great plastic bumpers on the new Tacomas, it was my bumper that disintegrated. I thought nothing of it until I realized my BSM wasn't working. The reason was that the male connector took the impact and broke off the BSM module. However, the pins seem perfectly fine and the rest of the sensor seems solid, so I'm thinking of putting my electronics degree to use and soldering a set of short wires to the module so I can re-connectorize them to the original connector.

    Except I need the male connector housing. Would anyone know where I can avail a male connector?

    I don't trust my skills at carefully gluing the existing housing to make good contact again, although that is an option, as is cutting the existing connector and choosing my own Molex connector pair.

    PS: I like my BSM.
