WTB: parts/connector pigtails from a PartOut

[17CivicTypeR_Brian]

Good morning,

I don't know if I'll be able to locate the exact pins required to do what I'm trying to do, so this is my backup plan. If anyone is doing a full partout, I need the pigtail connector from both male and female sides of the Side Mirror connector, as well as both sides of the connector for the head light switch.

I realize few are to the point of parting out a TypeR, but I can use parts from any regular Civic from what I can tell.

Alternatively, if anyone knows the connector manufacturer, and, more importantly, which specific pin set to use, I would be very thankful to learn and go that route!

Have any pictures of the connectors you are after?

well, I can say this, Honda uses tyco/amp and also sumitomo connectors just about exclusively in regards to what we are after.

That being said, I've come to the conclusion that without seeing the connectors in hand (I don't really want to tear apart my car either) it can be tough, what I can say is that, because its electronics world and not proprietary dealer info, technical drawings are available at the manufacturers websites (as well as distributors such as digikey and mouser) so if you have a set of calipers then getting the correct ones should be fairly easy.
That being said, I have access to a new set of wiring suppliers through work now and I'll check them out next week.

Let me know what you come up with. I've been through Mouser and haven't found anything exactly like what I have here. Closest look was the Multilock 040. I bought some pins from the CycleTerminal site and the pins are too big to fit. I started looking at Multilock 025... closer but don't have any in hand.

I really only need pins to add to the harness where the switch is. For the mirrors, I'm comfortable if I have to cut and re-terminate the wire with a new pin in a new 040 connector set.

Made an offer on a harness on Ebay. Hasn't arrived yet, but we'll see if it is the right stuff or not...
