Looks like you may be lucky. If the switch itself isn't damaged, you can just trim your wires back a hair and put matching female connectors to attach to the switch terminals.

Shouldn't be a mess. Two female spade connectors of like size and some nice heat shrink, and you should be good cosmetically. If you're going to use some electrical tape, use that higher quality 3M stuff...don't remember the exact part number.

I think the part you'd probably need if I'm looking at that pic correctly would be the handlebar wiring harness...complete if I had to guess. That would be ridiculously expensive for such an easy fix IMO.
