The little small guys that belong on the remote connections for the MD-11 and the even smaller ones that you have on a FE?

Thanks

I you happen to have a local Camera Swap Meet you can go to you'll find at least one of the vendors selling them new or maybe in a box of used parts...
Or you can bite the bullet and buy them from sellers like these guys...

These parts aren't cheap...I have nothing to do with this seller but I knew they would have them...

I hate to speak ill of people, but BocaPhoto has been having problems with getting supplied by Nikon for quite some time. My last buy from them was a disaster. I noticed that most of their "genuine Nikon parts" are out-of-stock. If I were buying from them I'd only be buying the aftermarket parts.

He's a nice guy but...

If there is a convenient bricks and mortar camera shop, check with them. They'll be in the drawer with the odds and ends accessories such as the focusing screens, screw in diopter correctors etc.
Or if you're close to an Authorized Nikon repair facility, give them a call.
Here in Toronto, Nikon Canada usually has some in stock in their Service Department, and they've always been kind enough to just give them to me (probably because they feel sorry that I'm still using clunky old manual focus film cameras, instead of the Latest and Greatest).
