:iagree: I couldl be fine with that method.

But I would purchase the connector also. My problem lies with no other person has done this to help me feel better about this isssue. I also wish the OP would post pics.

I knew you could come through! Thanks yet again bdl99!!! I know this is going to be in high demand!

Thanks, I think I can help... Give me 48hrs to confirm, I already have the plugs I just need to check I can get the sockets.

As others have mentioned minimum order quantities are generally the issue. What sort of demand is there for this? I don't want to make a ton of money here but don't want to be stuck with thousands of connectors either.

Would $50-70 be a reasonable price? I need to confirm the prices and qty of connectors before committing to that. That may seen expensive but the issue is the quantity, if we want 10K I can probably get it down to more like $5

Ok, I have an order already in progress for other connectors so I'm going to add a few samples of the female connector. I'm still aiming for the target prices of $50.

I know it doesn't matter, but what color are the other wires? Does anyone have a photo of the plug showing the wires? I know it is anal but I will make the extension harness with the same colors as the original if I know what color they are.

The suggestion was 8-10in of wire between the plug and socket, with the brown wire there but will probably supply pre-cut. I will offer LMBmikeZ one of the first kits if he wants it because he was the one who contacted me, who else is in on $50 beta units?

:happydance:And I happily accepted that offer!!!:tup:

:iagree:

Yes, exactly this.^^^ A mass order for plugs is a little premature, some testing/experimenting needs to be done first.

I'll take one, since I can't find the connectors easily I'll be using it for lock removal bypass experiments. If I get it figured out you can make and sell that one too.

I will do the brown wire (pin 1) cut on Saturday to confirm Fritz's findings.

OK, that will be the first three test kits.

Maybe I'm missing something, but hasn't the testing already been done by a couple of folks and by physically cutting the wire?

I haven't placed a mass order for plugs, I have added a few connectors to an existing order. I'm going to make three and go from there.
