Looking for specialised battery connector

[[email protected]]

I have a mangled connector on a rechargeable battery pack which
attaches to a portable dvd player. The player is an "Xtreme Video
DVD815-2" and the battery pack is Model No. RCBP-01.

The mangled bit is on the battery pack.

The connector on the dvd player is a set of four pins in a
three-blank-one configuration; the pins are blades about 3mm wide, 5mm
tall, and 3mm apart. The connectory on the pack is a set of u-shaped
metal bits, one for each pin, mounted in a plastic block such that the
dvd pins can be slid sideways into the u-shaped bits.

Digi-key has WAY too many connectors in their catalog...anybody know
something that might narrow my search?

Somewhere on my 2 tips files is how to make a get-by connector where exact
one is unavailable

If you gave us a picture of the connector it would really help in
identifying it.
