Loy's Toys sells them. But, if you use hardwire decoder that has a 9-pin plug on the decoder, you can get 'dummy plugs' for those as well, pop out the decoder, plug in the dummy plug, and it's a regular DC engine again. probably easier than trying to fit in an 8-pin socket to an engine that doesn't have one.
