They're in the Wireshark source tarball.

If you didn't have to modify Wireshark, although there's no provision 
for compiling a plugin without recompiling Wireshark, the resulting 
plugin should work with the version of Wireshark for which you have the 
source tarball; there is currently no guarantee that it'll work with 
newer versions of Wireshark (and definitely is, and never will be, a 
guarantee that it'll work with older versions, as you might be using a 
routine that didn't exist in the older versions).
