Where to buy/steal/obtain ATX cable?

[freebee]

I had burned out all the 5v pins on my Antec 400w atx connector on a faulty epox 8k7a MB on my old system (if you remember, this brand MB had problems where it would draw excessive amounts of power, particularly 5v power)

This was about 2 years ago. I've still been using the powersupply with the burnt connectors by cleaning it frequently of the corrosion with a metal prong, but it seems to be giving out. Need to buy the plastic connector part (since the plastic around the 5v pins are melted) and probably strip and connect the wires again.

Where can I obtain the bare connector? Thanks.

I need this thing (shown in mechbgons website, labelled atx cable)

Edit:Also, any other possible fixes such as soldering the atx cable wires directly to the MB? While I dont have the skills to do it, my dad probably can.

These people might have what you need.

You can find an assortment here. Price seems reasonable at $1.50.

Thanks for the replies guys. Wow, they even have ones that glow...hopefully this will work, still not sure how badly the wires are melted but I'll give it a try.

I have a 48V PSU that came out of some strange telco hardware I was recently given. The PSU is of no use to me. If you want to pay me for shipping, I'd be glad to send the connector your way.
