multi-connectors - OEM or 'small form' multi-plugs...?
Hi,

Seems I'm now re-wiring the whole car.... Confused 1994 300Tdi SW

As a result of fitting a Raptor console; a 'Madman' gauge; and tacho and boost gauges I'm going to be moving/relocating existing gauges.

To make the wiring as neat and 'future proof' as possible I'm going to try and make up small 'extension looms', using the correct wiring colours. Ideally I suppose, I'd like to find a source of the 'OEM' multi plugs (male and female) - specifically for the analogue clock and for the speedo and fuel gauge, so that I could plug my new wiring into the existing loom.

I think autosparks must have them, but they don't list them as separate parts. Does anyone know of any other sources?

Failing that, can anyone recommend 'small' multiplugs - 3 way and 6 way? I have a selection of econoseal and generic multiplugs using the 6.3mm terminals - but they're a bit bulky, and unecessary for the current involved.

My google powers can't be very strong tonight because I'm just not finding stuff.

Thanks as always Donald

PaulMc of this parish seems to be able to source most LR related plugs and is very helpful. Send him a PM with details of what you need. Darren

Thanks for that. I'll ping him a message.

As soon as I posted the message above, I found these - which are closer than anything I've found so far -but I'll see what Paul says.

I will try and dig out a website I used for my rover metro, I wired up a few things, which used a couple of OEM plugs. I even had to replace two on the main car loom too. Defender TD5 90 ---/--- Peugeot 306 HDI hatch back
