Default VAG says I need a new front wheel speed sensor, Part #?

Finally going to fix my ABS light issues, searched a few sites for this part but didn't find anything. Anyone direct me to a good price on this part?

Default Before you replace it...

Try popping it out and cleaning it with a wire brush. Then do the same with the socket it fits into. Wipe off the metal particles (they stick to the magnetic sensor) and blow out the socket with compressed air. That might "wake up" your sensor.
