wiring.

I got these fantastic connectors at my local BOSCH service center.  You may
not have one of these in your neighborhood... but in Austria and Germany
they are all over the place!

I started asking the guy about wire thicknesses, and hardware for my planned
headlight wiring and bulb upgrade, and he immediately grabbed these little
guys and said... "take these connectors, any other way of hooking them up is
just a compromise".

Anyway... the place is like 5 blocks from my house, so if anyone on the list
is interested in having them, I can make a BOSCH run and see how much they
cost (and if there is a quantity discount if anyone needs like 25 or so).

I would be happy to send a package out (although I do not really want to
start exporting these little guys to all the list members one at a time
every other day... just don't think it would be worth the time and effort
for such a small item... and shipping might end up costing as much as the
part).

It is possible that armed with the BOSCH  P/N youu can find a supplier in
the states too!

Feel free to pmail me, and I'll check into it if there is enough interest.
