Hello, 1st time post from an amateur. I have some old Habitat decorative lights that are powered by a transformer. There seems to be a break in the wiring as the lights go off when the wire is moved around so I was going to shorten the wire. The problem is that I can't find a replacement connector - it's a 2 pin connector - pictures attached. any ideas on where I could get a replacement? Many thanks.

Yes, have a Google for 2 pin DIN type speaker plugs. You can get solder type or screw terminal type.

They are very cheap. You'll definitely get them on ebay.

Oh and welcome to the forum!
