I've purchased a mod that extends the functionality of the convertible top. Before I go into details about the mod-- which I'm sure many of you will be interested in-- I'd like to ask a few questions about the connectors used by VW in "hooking up" the controller module.

The mod requires that I swap pins from the original connector with ones from the mod (hooking the mod into series with specific pins).

What I'd like to do is purchase the male and female connectors that are matching pairs for the vw parts. Then I could modify the extension rather than changing the original. This would make it easier to remove the mod, should that ever be necessary.

I have included a couple pictures of the connector, which is located on the left side of the trunk/boot.

Does anyone here know what type of connectors these are, and if they are available from anywhere other than the VW factory. :)

Thanks!

The connector I am looking to "extend" is pointed at by bubble "1":
