Coil pack connector help

I need to replace at least one of my coil pack connectors. That is the little plastic connector that snaps onto the coil pack. It is part number
PNA 721 043 00 136. I have tried Sunset, Suncoast and Pelican. No one has any in stock and ETA is the middle of March 2012.

Anyone know where I can get a couple of these?

Is it a broken wire, or cracked plastic? I was able to push the metal connector out and replace it with a vw wire when my knock sensor wire snapped at the connector, as I as well couldn't find a replacement plug fast enough.

sweeney186 is infamous around these parts

If its just the connector clip a little dab of rtv on the outside works very well

Yep its just the connector clip. The last time I just used some one inch diameter heat shrink tubing and put that around the connector. That worked well for two years. But I have only put 1k miles on the car in the last two years. I thought while the engine was out was a good time to replace it.

From what I have found out there are no connectors in the us right now. I have a full set on order the should arrive in March 2012. Until then I will use the heat shrink method that seems to work very well.
