    Bullet Type Plugs

    Can anyone help me with this one.

    I've ordered a hazard switch to install and have noted the plug is similar to the other plugs on the Landy see illustration.



    Is there a way to make a plug to fit it? I would prefer to not have to cut the wires.

    Depends on how you wire it up - that switch looks like the 80's RRC switch - it cross connects two blinker cans with two separate power supplies and the L & R blinkers. Unless your loom is set for this sort of device, you will have to cut both your loom and cut that plug off anyway. There are crimp connectors that you can force onto and into that sort of plug - but it's marginal at best.
    Jaycar do sell a version of plug - a 3 wire weatherproof. One half of that may fit one side of that plug, but not the other. If you want the other half of the plug, find a 2 door RRC.

    If you do not want to use all that - there is a simpler way with a electronic replacement blinker can and a double pole single throw switch. ( I've done it before in a series and now have it running in a 1978 vehicle - the electronic flasher can handle the extra load)

    Rubber bullet connectors like that area available from Jaycar i different configurations with a 6" or so length of wiring coming off it. So you can fix it to your existing wiring.

    Hmm thanks for your help...

    Found this and it is looking like the easy option with no chopping of wires, very tempting.
