Replacing the power connectors on my old Raymarine52 VHf

A friends 15 year old son is just starting to put his Ham Shack together and wants my Ray52 VHF that I just replaced. The mic cord is deteriorating, but it does still operate.
Honestly I think he just wants it for the look of multiple radios on the wall. But he’s more than welcomed to it.
I need to replace both the male and female power connectors for it before I give it to him. If you look close you can see a split in one of the leads that would go unnoticed and give a problem.
What would you use and where can I get a set?

That is a very common Molex plug. A simple search will give lots of sources.
His ham radio license won’t be of any use with a marine VHF radio. And retuning it for 2 meters is not an easy task.

Thank you Don,
I’ll search the name.
He really just wants it to monitor the channels. Given that they live on the water with only a street and break wall between them and the ocean, he will get he wants to hear coming and going up Narragansett Bay.
