What is this called?

Anybody know what this is called and where you get them. Putting new levers on and managed to twist an Allen key taking these out. Tight AF.

Might be a silly question, but did you loosen the locking 2mm Allen grub screw underneath? it's the one that's sealed with red paint.

When you find out where to get them please let me know. As far as I know they're not available separately. Don't know the official name but they are clutch and brake actuator connector.

Now solved. This is not the first time I’ve changed levers. Hole was covered in red paint so forget the Allen grub screw. Thanks for your help.

Nice one!

Be careful when setting the clutch side. so it doesn't slip, if it burns the clutch out it'd be difficult to get it done under warranty, cos the red paint is disturbed. If the hole where the barrel sits is slightly different then it won't necessarily mean that the "plunger" is in the same position as what it was before.
