Default 88 Regal ecm gremlins

Hi. I am having ecm terminal connection problems. I have been trying to find a source for new female connectors but cannot find the right ones.
Does anyone know where I can get some? Part #, anything? Any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Greg.

Something you can try.
Go to a salvage yard(junk yard) and look for any buicks with similar ECM set-ups. If they will let you ,cut the plugs off the harness in the junk vehicle , take them home and experiment the best way to remove the terminals from those plugs. Some require special release tools that you can make with some idea of how they get released. You will have plenty to practice on and when you are ready then you can remove the damaged ones from your vehicle . Sometimes you can readjust the original ones, but at least you know how to get them out without destroying them. When ready they just push in and hook so they can't come out without being released. Have you tried any GM dealerships?
