All these parts were produced for Bosch/VW by AMP. Some of them were 
standard AMP production and some were special.

The litte 1/8" female crimp-on pins are a standard AMP part, but not 
available in small quantities. Keith Park had to buy a BUNCH of them, 
but you can buy from him, as I have. I don't know if the little white 
plastic bodies were special or standard, but they can be reused. The 
rubber boots were probably special, but Bosch made them, in a variety 
of styles, for many years for many cars, so many of them can still be 
found in junkyards.  

The plastic connector and it's female pins for the brain is unique to 
D-jets, I think. Even so, Bosch used the same connector (2 different 
styles) for all D-jet makes and models. The plastic could be reused, 
but the pins are unique. I think Joe found a bag of those at a swap 
meet somewhere. I've never seen them anywhere else.
