Like the rear license light terminals that are very small. I need those at the moment, but I want to stock up anyway. I've searched, but there are too many threads about wiring that don't reference a source for terminals.
A few years back I finally bought a decent crimping tool, but now I need some terminals. In particular I would like to stock up on uninsulated terminals so I have a selection available when I need them. Walking into a FLAPS and only finding stupid plastic insulated terminals isn't cuttin it anymore. |

I bought one of these a couple of years ago. Comes with multiple dies for different terminal applications, insulated and uninsulated. There are several companies that manufacture a tool like this one. If shopping online watch the price. If it's this tool for less than $30, it's probably just the tool with one die set.

Right there on the inside of the lid Jim. You can actually read it in that picture if you work at it. The dies are labeled with their part numbers and the sticker tells you which die is for which type of terminals. It was well worth the money. The crimps that Jim Kelly posted pics of use the third die from the left. The uninsulated terminals I posted a picture of use the die on the far left. The dies with the colored dots are for the insulated terminals you buy at FLAPS, etc... |
