This style is still produced, and is all I buy and use. They are in the Narva catalogue. Moisture and corrosion can not get into a soldered connection.

Yeah these type are the standard spade bit type but i want to keep the rover original and it uses female bullet type connections that can join 4 wires into the same circuit. This will only connect two wires.

There would be a lot of messing around if i was to embark on a complete change of connector and i'd rather not.

They are on old Morris 1100's, Mini's, Moke's, and many other cars of that family from that era even up to the 1980's. Morris 1100's are usually given away. See if you can find some in a wreckers or old scrap yard. I may be able to find a few for you. How many do you need and of what type (2,4,6 or 8 point)?

regards
Mick

The type i was after are the ones that join 4 wires together, is that 4 point?

Don't send anything yet as Waxenwane said he would send some and I don't want to get greedy

I'll let you know if they don't suit what I need and hit you up then, thanks for the offer though.

I will have a look on the stage 1 if there is any there you can have them (in the near future)

I will be re-wiring the car to a more moden style

Or try a wrecker of older English cars. Minors & Minis are full of these connectors.

Second this, VWH used to be at Yennora (sydney) and I rebuilt both the series 2 and range rover harnesses from there. All commectors you can imagine plus both pure cotton braid for the purists, cotton over pvc for the try hards and pvc for the P38 owners (

).

If they don't have a trace color available then use the mechano set/wire trace painter to make it so.

They now appear to be in Vic,
