Ignitor Connector for PNP IGN-1A smart coils

Does anyone know the connector needed to make a plug and play kit for the IGN-1A coils? it would be the connector that "mimics" the ignitor in the stock harness. Most of the kits for the FD include this feature now but I can't figure out what connector it is (searched the forum etc).
I would just buy a kit, but I just did the HP academy wiring course, so want to try my hand at making my first good loom.

You'll have to look at the harness side connector, then go shopping on all of the connector suppliers to find the mating one. Ballenger normally has a lot of the weirder connectors and custom makes some niche things that are not available from the OEM connector manufacturers anymore (if they ever were).

You can also try easternbeaver and cycleterminal.

Realistically the people who know the answer to how to find these are the ones selling the harnesses and they probably aren't going to reveal their sources.

Yeah, I got that above, what I mean is who the OEM is. I browsed the sumitomo catalogue and they say that the 8 way flat (harness side) doesn't have a mating connector (for wire, it lists it as mating to devices only). So this must be a aftermarket or alternative connector that still accepts the DL series sumitomo connectors.
May end up getting it from ballenger but the rest of all the parts are easily available in the UK so was hoping to get that here too, importing to the uk adds like 50-60% to the final cost, due to import taxes and shipping rates

Ballenger produces some connectors that were never available from the OEM.

Whether they do it in house or outsource it somewhere, that I do not know.
