Old deck was hardwired, need help

Ok, so I finally get my lazy *** around to tinkering with my new toys (see sig), thought I would start easy, slap in my deck, under an hour no problem. 30 seconds, pop the old kenwood out, and then I almost started to cry.

The wiring job looks neat, however, whoever did the install before I got my car hardwired my deck in. I fixed a hardwire job in one of my old vehicles, but I no longer have any idea where to pick up the necessary plug that comes out from the car. I would like to order the proper plug in case I wish to throw in a different deck down the road. As well, the wires coming out of the dash are getting pretty short as it is, so its gonna be a ton of fun back there. Do I have any other options, or does anyone know where I can order this part from?
