There are lefts and rights, as well as 6V and 12V. You have to tell us which 
you need. These show up occasionally on ebay, or you may find someone on the 
list who has some spares. I don't have any of these parts.

I have no idea whether they can be fixed or not. I doubt if solder would work 
here.
