Yesterday I replaced the coolant flange on the back of the cylinder head because of a seal leak, what a PITA!
While doing this and leaning on the engine and cursing the German engineers, I broke off the plastic tabs on both sides of the front coil pack connector. I have searched all over the net and despite being able to find the coil pack all over, I cannot find the style of connector needed for this type of coil pack. I don't want to buy a complete set of new style coil packs and wiring harness if I can help it. I currently have the thing attached with zip ties, but I am not happy with this temp fix. Can anyone help?
Here is a pic of the style of packs I have:

I use this site for access to etka: Online Volkswagen vehicles spare parts catalogue, Volkswagen VIN decoder, Part number search, *** Online

Is this what you are looking for? https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine...electrical-connector-housing-3-pin/4d0906232/

Edit: or just google 4D0906232 which is the part number.

Can you read the part number on the broken connector?

Many thanks for the responses, why did I not look at the part closely for a part number, sometimes the obvious is just that, DOH!
It is in fact pn 4D0906232 and has been ordered.

I'm kind of doing something similar, how do you remove the pins from this connector?

Here's a video. I know sewing needles will substitute in a pinch for the tool:

I have seen that and the other videos. I'm using paper clips instead of the tool.
I have separated the terminal from the housing, I don't know if there is some other safety feature I have to remove before I push out the pins, because I can't get them out.

On the newer 4 pin connectors there is this purple safety clip that I got to pull out first, and I have no problem removing those pins with a paper clip.
