Title: Connector Kits - Where to buy?
Post by K-Mech on Jun 2^nd, 2018 at 8:40am

Does anyone know where connector kits are sold?

I have found www.bmotorsports.com. However, their inventory is very limited. Is there any other shop that sells connector kits (including the pins and the weather seals), For example:

www.bmotorsports.com/shop/product_info.php/products_id/4265

If anyone knows, hit me.

Thanks Bob! Excellent inventory there. Oh but the prices -MAN! $75 for a 4 pin connector is not for the faint of heart.

Anyone else has any other variations please feel free to share.

I don't know specifically what connector you're looking for, but you could give these guys a try.

I've used them before, but if I recall correctly, they aren't exactly cheap either.

The issue you find is when dealing with eurobor Asian vehicles. The manufacturer does not sell just the pigtail. You have to buy the whole harness. So...in the end scheme of things it is pretty cheap. Now I can tell you I do.not pay the internet price. Fyi

I cannot bring myself to buy a connector for $75. So for what its worth, I did some more looking around. I found out that the company that makes these connector kits is Sumitomo Wiring Systems Ltd. I managed to contact a Chinese authorized distributor for the connectors. It was difficult communicating with them due to language differences, BUT the distributor shared with me a link to the Aliexpress store. They have EVERYTHING that I have looked for at proper parts prices.

If anyone is interested, the link to the aliexpress store is https://www.aliexpress.com/store/2834102?spm=2114.10010108.0.0.770df212tRNcxM

I have offered to be a guinea pig for all of you and have ordered several sets of connectors. The minimum connector count is 5 connectors for $9.90 shipped.
