Not trying to be a jerk but... is your friend.

I used the search tab in the upper center of this page below the site logo... I input your topic description:
First choice was this topic, second was someone selling something, third was money.

Post 7 and post 11 answer your question using two different methods so you have options. Earlier posts tell you where to get the connector if you don't have one.

Hope this helps, good luck with the project and happy hunting.
