don't stress too much, just go grab yourself a soldering iron and some solder, unless it didn't snap at a joint.. then just go grab some extra wire and a butt connector
sorry if that wasn't helpful i'm half past drunk

The wire snapped right at the end of the maf connector :/
I managed to McGuyver something together and will hobble the car to qew mazda first thing tomorrow.... Hope they can help me without slapping me with a huge bill.

Seriously you can get a cheap soldering iron for like 10 bucks, ans solder for a few more.... its not hard. I dunno how things work over there, but in QC if you're at a dealer they have to charge you for an hr labor minimum (by law), and then they charge you for consumables, such as solder, so $110 vs $10 >,<

There's almost no wire to solder to, plus I haven't soldered anything of significance since... high school? :chuckle
I just got a ride home from QEW after hobbling the car there at 7AM before traffic hit, they are trying to squeeze me in some time during the day. I was told it'd be around $90.
