You may find another VW connector, with better condition wires, that
will fit. Or, your FLAPS or VW specific parts shop may stock ~ 8"
wires with the proper terminal already crimped on. Removing the wires
from the connector is a small PITA but can be done with a paper clip
or similar. Push up on wire as you apply the tool that closes the ears
on terminal. This web page shows what I mean:

I made a tool out of a narrow flat blade screwdriver.
