3rd Brake Light/ CHMSL repair parts?

Does anyone know the part number of the connector below (or its mating connector) for the 3rd brake light on the first gen sedans? I want to repair mine, but I can't find the connector by itself. I looked here: https://srs20assets.service-solution...-48817_HRK.pdf for the connector, but they didn't seem to match exactly. I am pretty sure I have an intermittent connection, but I don't want to just hard solder the connections. i would like to keep the OEM connectors.

Second, anybody know where I can find a few (10 or so) of the snapled 150mA replacements? Philips seems to have discontinued them so their normal distributors have no stock. I am looking for either the SSL150-WO88 or even the older HPWS-TH00 LED's. These are the OEM replacements for the LED strip, so I'd like to use the same ones if possible. I have a spare light with the burnt out LED's I want to replace.

As for the connector, I have no clue.

For the bulbs, I replaced my broken snaps with a single 5V LED diode. It looks just like OEM and no more Zebra effects.

I would like to keep it OEM if I can. I know there are plenty of alternatives I could throw in there if I wanted. Thanks though.

Anybody else?

I'll check with him. I actually got ahold of someone at future electronics and they do have some stock of loose pieces of the SNAPLED's. I'm not sure I need 70 of them though to replace 2, so unless other people need some too I'm not sure if that option is too viable.
