Thanks Neil. I was hoping to avoid a used part and think that Bus Boys 
may have these connectors. What threw me was that they were referring 
to it as the "thermotime" switch connector. Here's the link: 
http://www.bus-boys.com/bb13386.htm#2pin As often as the temp 2 sensor 
seems to fail it's probably wise to replace these connectors for the 
temp 2 and temp gauge senders. You really don't want to be without 
either operating exactly right! Thanks for your input.

For certain connectors, a VW specific shop might have replacement
leads with the metal terminal already crimped on. This is what i found
for a (Mylex?) connector to the hall sender on my ABA. My guess is
that the terminals used on your plugs are removable.

Those senders are used on other VW's. Bone yard? Older Mk1-Mk3?

Neil.
