I'll back Mark up here and say that the best way to get these is to go to 
your local pick a part, yank them off of an Audi and get the wires too.....

Oh, and don't forget to take a rubbing or something of the hole in the 
audi....I actually used a piece of a styrofoam cup, pressed it into the 
hole and it made a perfect imprint for a template
