Help Needed! (RESOLVED)

So I'm working in MLCad/LDraw/whatever it is called (ldraw.org is where I got it).
I tried to get the two "Hassenplug" parts, but couldn't find the "Technic Pin Connector Perpendicular 1 x 3 with 4 Pins" part.
Does anyone know where I can get this part? I'm trying to model something and it's kind of a crucial piece (and no, re-working design is
not a viable option).
Can anyone help??? Thanks in advance!

When I first started using MLCad I followed the instructions at
http://nxtblog.davidjperdue.com/2008/01 ... xt-robots/. This should get you all the NXT parts, including the one you're looking for.

Unfortunately this lacks the part I need. (The part number is apparently 48989.dat). Thanks though!

I have never used LDraw, but you may find Philo's site of interest.

I have been there many times, but the part I was looking for (the 1x3) wasn't on there, just the 3x3. Thanks though!

Could you send a link (Peeron or Bricklink) on the exact part you need? If it's a regular Technic part, it IS available in LDraw.

As mentioned above, I found the part. It's on the LDraw website (powered by Peeron), here's the link again:
http://www.ldraw.org/library/updates/view0903/48989.dat
It's just kind of hard to get to (at least it was for me), and it didn't pop up in any of the searches/parts tracker.
@Philo: to whom do you want the link sent?
