Default Coolant Temp Sensor Plug Connector

I really badly need a plug that goes onto the sensor in the upper thermostat housing. Its the plug that is on the wire side. Mine broke off. Please need the pretty badly.

Thanks.

the plug or the sensor? If it's just the plug you could easily ghetto rig something until you get a more permanent fix.

wait a friggin' minute...can I do this too?

If you say yes Scott I will name my first boy after you -hell, I'll start calling my girl "Scott"-.

I'm trying to do a reroute...but thought I needed that stinkin' sensor. I thought it also fed the stock temp gauge. Good grief I've been beating myself up on that. This would mean I could complete my reroute TODAY!
