[urq] Electrical question

[n-engelbert@terrans.net]

I replaced a few pins in my fusebox connector with pins from AMP or Molex,
don't remember, they're nothing too special.  I've got a bag full of them
somewhere, and we've got a bunch of them at work.  Look for pins/sockets
for AMP Mate-N-Lok connectors,

 But I did need a special open barrel crimper that I borrowed from work. 
Crimper and pins are available from Newark and the like.  I think I even
saw a crimper similar to what I used on Javad Shadzi's 034efi site.  He'd
probably be able to help you with the pins as well.

HTH!
