Default Yeah, those are pretty easy to lose. I need 3 of them. Audi doesn't sell them individually. Must buy

the whole connector. :/

Might be able to make one out of some SS wire.

Ploug it in and use SS wire to keep it together for the time being.

Did you remove the clip or push in to release the harness?

Default I had a dumass moment and pulled up instead of pushing down and it took a leap - what I get

for working on it tired (too late after work)

Default yep...was sure hoping to avoid buying whole connector (figured - hoping - there

would be a pic-a-part or something similar from wrecked/salvage. Don't mind spending money where 'needed', but sure would like to save $ if I can. If I come across any (mutiples) I'll post/email you.

Default Good suggestions to use SS wire & make one - there are some areas where I'm borderline obsessive

about doing it right (and I prefer not to have to go back and fix something I should have done right the first time)

Default I'm totally on board with you on that philosophy. I'm happy to spend when needed, but only when

when necessary.
