Rega Cartridge Clip Broke Off

I have a new P3 and I was changing cartridges over to a DV 10x5. Everything was going well, but I decided to make sure the clips had a snug fit and in doing so I somehow broke the red clip on the tonearm off. I asked my dealer about the possibility of fixing it, and he said they'd have to solder a new clip on, but the tech is gone until Tuesday. 

My my question is whether or not those clips require solder connections as opposed to just a crimp? I don't have an objection with paying for the repair, but I'd rather not be without my P3 for that long especially considering this 10x5 is my first MC, and until I have $5k to drop on a Soundsmith or the likes I'm eager to hear what this can do. 

Is is there anyway I can fix it at home, or at least "bandage" it until a proper repair is done. I'm not new to soldering but something about the tiny wire on my only turntable mixing with hot solder scares me. And is there any clips I could perhaps buy over the weekend? I live nearby a Frys and I'm thinking they might have something that would do for a bit. 

I feel truly heartbroken.
