Ignition coil connector broke...options?

So, after 150k and plenty of hot TX summers my coil connectors are pretty brittle. I was changing my plugs yesterday and the retaining tab on the #1 coil broke. I have it zip-tied to keep it on for now. Does anyone sell replacement connectors that I can solder and shrink tube? I looked on courtesyparts and didn't see anything.

Go to the wrecking yard and harvest some connectors. You should be able to pull the wires and terminals out of your old connectors and insert into "new".

Google can be your friend. Search injector connector.

In the 4th GEN classified section put a WTB ad for a coil pack pigtail.

I placed an add there last March when I broke a coil pack and received a used OEM within a week.

Thanks guys...I appreciate the suggestions. Asand1, I would prefer to just re-pin some new connectors. Cutting and soldering is easy for me too. Those are injector pigtails not coil pack connector that you linked. I'm just worried that used connectors will be just as brittle.

I can go to the pull a part and pull a bunch if you guys need them. Just not sure when I am going next and it would cost me more in gas than yall are willing to pay for them
