Headlight connector (inside) replacement

Does anyone know if there is a part to help replace the headlight connector inside the headlight after it is removed from the car?

It is the connector to which all the wires go from bulbs. Same connector that mates with the other half inside the car, when you slide the headlight back into place.

Been trying to see if there is a replacement part or if this is part of the entire headlight assembly (would be dumb though).

What I am referring to is this wiring shown in the pic...the wiring that goes from each bulb, into the connector marked in the pic, which in turn plugs into the harness connector on the car side, when you install the headlight. The wiring in the headlight is brittle and is flaking off due to heat I presume. Wanted to know if there is a replacement part for the wiring, or if I need to buy entire headlight.

Try a breakers/wreckers yard. This is what I did on my 996 and found a cracked headlamp which cost very little, then I salvaged the harness out of it.
