Injector Connector Pigtail Replacement
I went through the beating of changing my VC gaskets on my LS430 today and in the process it appears that one of the injector connectors got a little banged up (it's a tight fit on the driver's side) and is beyond repair. Of course Lexus wants to sell me an entire new harness, but i'm guessing some smart guru out there knows what kind of connector this is and where I can find a replacement.
The one I have has a "11154", "E45".
Your help would be greatly appreciated. Oh, and if you are thinking about changing your VC gaskest, do everything you can to not. It's a tough job.

Finally somebody else who has the same problem I did! Searched all over the internet when it happened to me. Also change my VC gaskets and the same thing happened to me, but not only to one but 3! those wires seem to be actually very weak. Lexus wanted me to also replace whole harness for over $1K...ended up going to local advanced auto showed them the little round tube that holds the wire in and they gave me something that I could crimp to the end of the wire and click into the whole on injector...running without one injector made if feel like i was driving a motorcycle...glad when I finally got mine fixed.
