I can also supply Geunine Bosch Germany kits with numerous fittings and spec terminals. I would have to check for a listing of the many components and cost. The spec terminal release tools are in the kits and I would suspect available as well singlely. The kits would special order/warehouse only availability, except for specialty shops like me who will not compromise the quality of function inherent in the 'real deal'. My jobber typically has all the components available singlely one day from me. All boots, terminals, housings are available for 2 through 7 gang interfaces. D-jet, K-jet, Motronic kits are available. I also have available the Hella chassis wiring terminal kits with the high spec German fittings. Definatly not the $19.95 reduced to $9.95 cheese kits you see on the Whitney and Harbor Freight loss leader inserts.
