best way to replace them is to get some new wires(couple of these) (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/300mm-Futaba-Servo-Extension-Lead-/120679115971?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item1c19092cc3#ht_500wt_949) cut the unneeded end off and solder them on the circuit boards on the esc and servo done a few of mine just use a narrow tip soldering iron.

doing this you can make the wires the lengths you want them and they dont look a mess in your car

You can buy the ends and just crimp new terminals on and use new plastics!! DAMN sight easier than soldering to the board!
