electrical connectors 10 pin, etc

[t0oL]

anyone have a link to get electrical connectors, male female
with about 10-12 pins to connect a digital dash USING
ORIGINAL WIRE/- COLORS?

got something form a junkyard but connecting the original wire
to the junkyard wire colors and back again really is messing up my wiring,
which doesn't look the greatest to begin with.

Also need a few 4-6 wire connectors of the same type.
Have headlights/ taillights mounted on the bumpers so I would need connectors for when/if bumpers need removed by unplugging.

All wires are 16-14-12 ga. Thanks lots.

Tool, I'm a big fan of Deutsch connectors, they are weatherproof, very easy to disassemble without special tools. The only downside is you need a Deutsch pin crimper to make the crimps small enough to fit inside the connector bodies. MSD has an inexpensive crimper (Summit has their knockoff crimper also) but you need to buy the $30 Deutsch die set separate. These connectors are available from many sources, a Google search will help you find them, read more about Deutsch connectors here.

Here is a website that has everything for the Deutsch connectors. Just type in the word deutsch in the keyword. Do not use the words connector or electrical connector http://www.kent-automotive.com You can find 2 wire & up weather proof connectors. Also will find the caps & the tools for them. These are some really good connectors.

Check your local Radio Shack - they have several pin connectors to choose from. Not as good as the Deutsch type, but might be what you're looking for inside where it's dry:

That Summit crimper comes with the jaws to do the bare open pin connectors, I believe.

Those are Molex and if there not going to be exposed to the elements they work fine. They're a pain to crimp therefore I solder all that I use.
