Source for electrical crimp connector - ONE!

Does anybody know of a source for small automotive electrical parts?

I am trying to find one lonely crimp connector. The one that goes in the engine harness connector that plugs into the fuse block on the fire wall.

I have found "rebuild kits" but they want $110. I only need one lousy connector.

Good used?

So many have changed out their orig harnesses, I would think that one
could find a good, usable connector from a helpful forum member.
I would help if I had one I could spare, but I need all mine to
keep my car running!

Good luck, GA

Oh, keep the car running by all means. I have tried to pull the old ones from the old harness but I just mutilate them trying to open the crimp.

Is this what you need?

Performance Connection Systems sells these. Called Packard Twin Lock terminals, or Firewall Bulkhead Connector terminals.

Done!

That's great. I just couldn't bring myself to wrapping up the wire with that 2" long piece of solid strand butt spliced in to the fuse block.

If I had one --it'd be yours! (I copped the photo from the PCS website.)

I know what you mean about trying to open up those factory crimps. Those terminals are definitely "one-shot devices".
