    yeha

    parts stores don&#39;t have it, they keep on tring to sell me 4ga wire, and i tell them i don&#39;t need 4ga wire, i need the connector that plugs into the side of the alt

    the dealership and the junk yards are A-holes, they want to sell me the hole engine harness
    the junkyards don&#39;t want to cut up a good harness as they call it, but i can see that they already cut it to get it out of the vehicle

    The dealer will have it. It may cost you &#036;20 but it will save you the aggrevation. If your local dealer won&#39;t find it for you, call someone else. The dealer will have the bare connector with a pigtail wire connection hanging out of it or it will come with the connectors and the wires seperate so you can plug in only what you need.

    http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_image...358_88_full.jpg

    its has 4 pins


    its from mid 90&#39;s gm style alt

    i just need the connector so i can re-pin my stock wire to work with this, i have the pins i just don&#39;t have the connector, im thinking about just putting the single pin on it for now until i get my hands on the connector


    this is what the plug looks like on my stock 2000 alt
