    Vintage Connections..so far, so good.

    Hey Everbody,

    Ordered some electrical connections from www.vintageconnections.com today.

    About 15 mins after paypal receipt hit my email, I got a shipping notice from Vintage Connections!! I'll add more info when the kit arrives and I have a chance to inspect....

    I highly recommend the business. Their stuff is as close to OE as one can get. I even found silver cable sheathing for my T500, which is extremely hard to find. Pricing was pretty good, too.

      Got the kit yesterday, and used it today. Very nice kit! The crimping tool is GREAT! Definitely a BIG thumbs up for Vintage Connections

        Just got my kit. Ordered Tuesday, shipped the same day and arrived Friday. The kit comes with some "Practice Terminals" that are made of inferior brass and manufactured in China to practice using the tool with which is nice. The difference in quality is VERY apparent. Here are my practice crimps:

        The middle wire is the Vintage Connections terminal while the outer two are the "practice" terminals. With the thinner gauge wire, I kind of mushed end of the inferior terminal so maybe it's not the most fair comparison, but the VC one (middle) is much cleaner and very solid. I know I need to strip less housing off the wire since the strands are poking through too much but I'm super excited to clean up some wiring on my GS.
