97 fzj80 that has brake lights but no rear running lights including license plate and side markers. Found this and looking for help replacing the connector. Anyone know if these are available or what a good replacement might be?

This is a common situation with all the possible water intrusion culprits in the rear corners. Be sure to track those down. I had multiple offenders.
I would be tempted to cut out junk yard FZJ80 connectors (that look good!) and then splice on your wires, that you cut off.

One of two things: 1) the connectors should have a part# on them. 2) the manual or partsourq should list them and you can either purchase from Toyota if still available or go through Ballingers.
Reason for the alternate suggestion is there aren't many 80 sitting in wrecking yards (at least not around here).

Found the part # from a post a few years ago. This part# replaces the whole assembly not just the plug.

You may want to check with the fellas a Cruiser Yard (still an advertiser here, I think). I've bought small bits and pieces from them in the past. They may have a used loom with those connectors that they'd be willing to part with.
Not a big issue. You just need to focus! Get the two mating connectors, move the viable pins over to the new housings and then crimp new ends on the bad pins and install them.
I’ve got the tools and pins on hand.
