Where to buy Shimano 105 FD-5800 Converter Pin

Shimano 105 front derailleur, FD-5800.

The "converter pin" is gone. It is the pin which sits next to the bolt which secures the cable.

Shimano Part Number Y5P122000. I believe it is the same as Ultegra 6800.

Anyone know where I can buy one? Or two? There is one on Amazon but the seller has crappy reviews and a few in Europe and Japan. I'm looking for a US source.

Anyone have one they want to sell or a 105 or Ultegra 11-speed donor derailleur they want to sell?

LBS with a Shimano account? Although you may find it's cheaper to just buy a complete new/2nd hand 5800 FD.

Performance website says several stores near me have the new Ultegra R8000 in stock for $42.99.

It is supposed to have better adjustment, lighter action and hopefully no pin to get lost.

I'll probably give them a call in the morning and go that route.
