    Very quick service and have a lot of other goodies - they will ship WW...

    The pins I bought were for 1.5 to 2.5 sq mm as I originally intended them for use as the heater plugs. if you want pins for the main Motronic ECU plug, I suggest you use the 0.5-1.0 sq mm female terminals (pn. 051601) instead. These will click into place in the blank terminal holes, either as a replacement for damaged ones (imagine for 20 UK pence / 40 US Cents you can fix an individual pin, saving you several hundreds instead of replacing the whole loom as would normally happen)

    The 3 way housing kit, replaces crank position sensors, the 2 way females replace all injector plugs and cam sensors, the 6 way female replaces all MAFs and so on...

    Excellent information, and good prices! Here in the States, the only source is Eagle Day:

    http://www.eagleday.com/ampconnectors.html

    And prices are over double at Eagle Day. Though shipping and duties might eat some of that up. Also, I noticed your source does not carry the straight, 2 pole boots.

    These parts, including the boots are available through any Tyco distributor...at 10% of the Eage Day prices.

    Google "Junior Power Timer Housings", go to Tyco...and follow link to shopping cart. Minimum quantity is 6.
    Typical price is less than $11 (for six). This is a "very standardized" connector and has been readily available for many years..

    Regards,
    David

    Thanks David, so Tyco sells direct? I always thought they were wholesale only. Also, can you provide a direct link to the housings and boots? I can only turn up the pins, in my search on their site (which they seem to offer a dizzying array of types/options...like hundreds of choice...how does one know which to choose?

    Pick your connectors; the most common ones used on our cars are on this page, or look at the index on the left for boots and pins...then select "Check Availability". This link will send you to a distributor where you'll be able to purchase the connectors in reasonable quantities.

    Hope this helps a bit more...

    Regards,
    David
