I might have found a suitable part

or

The TE Connectivity one actually looks a closer match. the housing looks pretty similar, and the pitch is the same at 3.96mm/ The voltage and current rating aren't the same though, I mean i don't need 600V 7A for this application, it's just a question of if it's physically too small, or the pins are too small to fit the existing header on the board.

Yeah, Molex KK 396 or the SL-156/HSG were going to be my guess. There may be similar/equivalent from other manufacturers as well.

Only problem now is buying the thing, the part is about £0.11 but the shipping :-DD the £0.11 part ends up costing upwards of £6 |O

It seems that "CH3.96" is the generic name for these. This style might have been around for longer than 0.1" connectors, I remember seeing them in '70s electronics.

Thanks, that gives me something a bit more generic to look for, rather than a specific manufacturer name.
