Howdy folks,
I was hoping for some assistance on my headlight retrofit project. I'm installing retrofitlab projectors and shrouds into some "ebay specials" spare headlights I bought just for this project.
I managed to get the headlights open and remove the old burned lenses and lamp housing on both lights without difficulty. I was prepared for it to be more difficult but I recall watching some videos and that helped a lot.
The issue I am having is the wiring inside the old headlights is shot. I know some have used liquid electrical tape stuff to seal the old wiring but I honestly think mine is too far gone and I would feel more comfortable just rewiring it. I removed all the wiring and it's not a big deal...except for getting new pins for the connector. What I am looking for is pins that go into this connector on the headlight side of things. The pins are male.

Porsche sells the connector to go into the car side connector (female) as these:

But I can't seem to locate a Porsche part number for the male/headlight side connector.
Scouring the interwebs has led me to this connector:

But no one seems to stock it that I can find.
Any suggestions or if possible if there is a part number that exists?

Thanks
