Default Y Connectors

I was wondering if its possible to buy just the connectors on the y-connector and servo hookups? I don't like the idea of having extensions connect within the wing without easy access. I was thinking if I could get just the ends I could make up my own wires long enough to go from the servos to the receiver.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

Murphy:

Here are three sources for buying the connectors and bulk wire.

Murphy,
One way to do this is to just clip the servo wire in half and insert a length of bulk wire. That takes six solder connections and you don't have to buy a new end.

If you add on a new longer wire then attach a new end, it still takes six solder points.

The easiest way is to join the extension (only 3 joints). Then you don't need to buy connectors.
