I would like to make all of the electrical connections from my instrument panel to go thru one multi pin connector.
Does anyone have ideas of where to buy something like that.
To also have spares, it needs to have about 12-15 pins.
Why are there more horses a**es in the world than there are horses?

Painless Wiring ha multi-pin connectors. They are available thru Parr Automotive and others. Been using them for years for dash plugs. 3-6-9-12-15 I think.

Yes, the one from Painless looks like what I want.
The first one looks nice, but I'm to cheap to pay that much.

Thanks

I've got a couple of the Painless connectors on my cpe. No problem in 12 years
Some days it\'s not worth chewing through the restraints.

I like the Molex .093" (pin diameter) connectors.  ......They are not sealed to prevent moisture from entering, but they are fine inside a car interior.  ......They will handle up to & including 14ga wires.

They are available at Radio Shack and electronic-supply houses.  ...Your choice of 3,6,9,12, or 15 pin configurations.  (Radio Shack only stocks up to 12 pin sizes.)

Radio Shack # 274-232 is 12-pin male connector w/terminals - $2.79

Radio Shack # 274-242 is 12-pin female connector w/terminals - $2.79

Radio Shack # 274-223 is a Terminal Extraction Tool - $7.99  (Not necessary, but much easier!)

Pictures are available at www.radioshack.com  .....Enter the item number into the search box.

The plastic parts can be attached to the ends of a harness, or they can snap into a retangular hole in a sheetmetal panel.
