A cheap source of Di2 connectors can be an obsolete EW-67A Junction As (for external batteries). I got one for £6 a year or two back, although prices on eBay seem pretty mixed nowadays, probably because a lot of them have gone in the bin.
Di2 connectors are actually completely standard MCX mini coax connectors used on some portable RF equipment. But Shimano use the female connector for the Di2 plug, which is the opposite of commonly available MCX cables.

Thats some great info there, thanks a lot! Ill have a look into it :)
@yeahdext damn if we had known this 2 days ago! If you dont mind another trip to the post office, that'd be awesome. Paypal/forum donation/beer money etc. of course
Edit: And on that note, it looks very much like the next gen di2 is going to be equipped with the other kind of di2 cables EW-SD300... Source

Does anyone have any faulty/broken di2 cables, including ones with a broken connector? I know that the connectors themselves are in high demand.
Its interesting to see that noone has tried to make di2 plugs except maybe this guy on ebay selling these for 45 quids.
But even he warns against them getting wet easily. I feel like once you get the inside right, its just the matter of tolerance + maybe an o ring on the outside. So...anyone has a broken one that I can tear apart? :)
