SL hardtop defrost plug

The hardtop defrost pigtail that gets plugged in to the chassis is missing the its connector housing. I have the pigtail with both male electrical pins intact, but the connector housing is missing. I don't know what it looks like or if I can buy it. Anyone have a part number or suggestion? It's very hard to plug in the two leads with only the pins soldered to the end of them.

I would definitely get this replaced, this is a high current connection and it might do quite a bit of damage if it shorts somewhere.

Parts catalogue anyone?

I just need the connector housing. Wires are intact with pins soldered on the end (one pin is bigger diameter than other to ensure polarity). I'm thinking the housing is nothing more than a two piece plastic contraption that attaches around the wires/pins. I've never seen one, so any pics or part numbers greatly appreciated. A digital pic of someone else's connector would help.

There are three numbers associated with that connector:

A 012 545 05 29 - PLUG
A 008 545 11 28 - COVER
A 013 545 79 28 - PIN

Hope this helps
Lea
