Wow, $40, I'm guessing the know what they have there. I'm tempted to throw the CAD file on the resin printer and see what I get...
Edit: bummer, I pulled up the model in Fusion, and the internals are not modelled at all.

I can take what they have and add the internals in Solidworks, Mastercam, or Fusion 360. I look at it later. I have a Photon Mono X sitting here in the closet.

All it is is a hole with a rib for the pins to grab, with a connector it should be easy to model
I still am under the opinion that they are just out of stock and making a batch at my workplace we experience this pretty frequently as we use a lot of old Electronics parts. given TE still lists it as an active product I have relative faith they will be available again but who knows how long.
They do appear to sell a similar updated connector that could probably use the original pins and replace the factory connector

LCSC appear to have
stocked 926102-1 in the past, and will let you check out with any quantity (this will be converted to an RFQ and probably closed). You might be able to talk them into a low quantity quote (~100 should be $50) by directly inquiring though...Sometimes it's easier to get your hands on smaller quantities directly through distributors in China.

Look at the porsche pet diagram, they have all the plugs and pins there. If not for some reason it looks like a standard molex plug so go on digikey or whatever your equivalent is and find it.
Its not any of the plugs in the PET

Sure thing - here's the alternator harness I just got and where it plugs into on the firewall side.
Looks painfully similar to a standard 2 pin molex, but just a bit different.
Probably easier to just cut it off and go to a 2 pin DTM connector.

Did anyone end up finding a source for this plug? dcmachinist wont ship overseas so I'm making my own harness
I will ship overseas - I just don't have it set up on my website because Weebly (Square) sucks. I have to copy and paste all customer info from from every order (even domestic) to USPS since Square bought Weebly. I used to be able to ship directly from my website. Jack Dorsey's greed ended that. They suddenly cut off that option unless I spend an extra $500+ over two years with them. I will be moving my website when my Weebly term expires to anyone not affiliated with Jack Dorsey, possibly self-hosting.
Anyone wanting to order overseas can send me a message through my contact form at the bottom of my site homepage.
You must of been having a bad day because you cancelled my order and accused me of being a scammer.
Its a moot point now Ive ordered cable and have the tooling to make my own. Thanks for sharing the connector information

You can make 10 harnesses now! I wasn't having a bad day. I was having a bad year. Divorce, followed by having everything hacked to smithereens. I lost control of my root email account I'd had for 20 years and a bunch of other fun stuff. I couldn't log into my credit union, etc. over and over. I was running VPN with good security and all updates. It wouldn't have mattered. It's impossible to defend against an inside job. I apologize for cancelling your order, etc. It was an ugly time.
