    Hi i wanted to ask if anyone of you out there knows if its still possible to buy new P.E.D. connectors for 1966 Riviera and also rest of male and female connectors wich can be found on those old wires.
    I am goin to make new harness and i wanted old style connects to stay there.I could use something modern but i really like that vintage stuff:Brow: .
    so if anyone knows of a suplier for that old stuff please let me know.

    Thanks Kacper.

    I've redone alot of my '65 Wildcat harness. I've found alot of the connectors but I am not familiar with P.E.D. Can you show a picture and I might know where to get some....or have some for that matter. I went a little crazy buying wiring stuff.

    I searched everywhere for those. I don't remember where I found them, but they only came in a big bag. Many more than I needed. I dug them out the night of your first post to make sure I had them.

    How many do you need. Remember those come from both the engine side and underdash side.

    Almost all other plugs and connectors can be found @ http://terminalsupplyco.com/Store/Default.aspx?CAT=DEL010&PCAT=12483#Categories

    If you don't have a quality Delphi crimping tool you better get one. Plan on spend about $100. It will be worth every penny.

    As for the tool i have one made by Facom, I think it was more than 100$ tho:) closer to 600....:Dou: , but it works for its value in my shop.French cars has poor electricity:rolleyes: .

    Thanks Kacper.

    How about a new factory correct harness from M + H?. Will cost a bit but saves tons of time and energy.

    Rick, thanks for the link on Terminal Supply. If those side post bolts are correct for my original nice cables with beat up bolts then I ma good to go. They look close so now I have to go home and match them up. If they match you are the man!:TU:

    Here it is. I did not see harness for your car on the site but they often have the blue prints for everything so may be able to make it. I think old cut up wiring is a fire hazard. My car had a fire because of an old harness. Lucky previous owner put it out quick.

    Kacper:

    Here are the connectors I have. M&H makes great harnesses. If you decide not to go to M&H let me know and I'll send what you need. I'll send a PM with the details.

    I installed one on my old wiring harness bulkhead to make sure they matched. The connector on the bottom left side of the bulkhead is the new one.
