Need 2 trunk light connectors

I am installing another set of trunk lights in my sc. I have a pair of oem light fixtures with the lens just like what is in the trunk now. What I need is the appropriate male 2 prod plastic plug in connectors that will plug into the oem fixture and I can then wire them to the same oem harness. I called the lexus stealership they will not sell me connector only I have to buy the entire two wire connector harness that plugs into my fixture and then plugs into another part of the harness. They want $ 60.00 for each two wire harness for each side. I tryed to retrofit some connectors I had on hand but the electric blades of the fixture are very thin and really require the oem connector. The connector is nothing more then a simple two prod connector that is used in a lot of other places of the lexus harness. Other lights and accessories use the same type of connector. I am not able to solder to the blades because they are within the plastic connector. I really want to try and keep the wiring like oem with regard to connectiors etc. I tryed salvage yards and they will not break a harness. I went to pep boys autozone. and they have nothing. I just dont want to hack the fixture Iam trying to wire to . Any one have any Ideas or sources for me . I even asked the dealership if they would look through there daily scraps that of course they have from changing parts for other cars and they said no. I am sure that on a daily basis they throw many parts out that they replace for cars that have the connectors I am looking for. It just amazes me how rude the parts department is at the dealership. They know I bought my car from them. When ever I do take the car in for service I am never able to speak to a mechanic there . Its almost like forbidden to talk to anyone else other then the service writer.
