Does anyone know the part number or where to find the female plug for the later model reverse light switch on a manual 4spd transmission? I recieved the one in the picture from one of the vendors, which isn't the correct one for my '86. I did get the correct one but if I could find the correct connector, I'd use this one instead. Thanks for any advice.

can you take a picture looking straight down the inside of the plug
so we can see the shape of the plug.

Part number 357972752.

I stock them for my Syncro locker switches, ready to crimp, with the boot.

I can mail you a set monday if you want, freebie. Just keep the good karma wheel spinning.

It is a 2 way Packard connector
Ot is available from Brickwerks in the UK, but I am sure you can buy it from electronic part suppliers in the US or from ebay

The connectors arrived today. I ordered a five pack of both the male and female connectors, with pins and the "weatherproof thing" for the wire. Cost was around $6 shipped. https://www.aliexpress.com/i/3256804543923181.html?gatewayAdapt=4itemAdapt
Figured I could use the extras somewhere else at some point. Works as it should with the late model reverse light switch, purchased from VC. Thanks for the help guys!
