Default FAO Wiring Experts - Car loom connectors wanted

I've recently bought some magneti marrelli coils for my new engine and I'm stuggling to find the correct electrical connectors to fit them to the engine loom.

Does anyone have any ideas to where I could get a set of four connectors to fit these coils.

Here are some links to the coil I have

I've e-mailed all the links so far so lets wait and see.

I might try and source some from a scrap yard as a last resort.

Does anyone know of any good part finder websites?

Have you tried Ryan from carlooms uk?? He uses this board and made a fantastic job of my Cossy loom for the Mk2.

Not something i stock as i generally either use zetec coils or bosch coils so i have the relevant plugs for those but not for the one pictured above.

I could probably source it though, if you knew the plug manufacturer?

If your refering to this style of connector it will not fit at all.

These coils use a special fitting.

I assume you have tried MM Competition Systems then? Looking at that PDF file, the order code for the plugs is AMP 284425 and is manufactured by AMP/Tyco. Any AMP/Tyco stockist should be able to get them for you but from what it looks like MM would be the most likely company to stock them.

I tried MM first when I bought the coils.

They don't seem to be able to source them.

I have e-mail all the so called specialists in the country and most have either no idea or aren't bothered.

Kevin at Viper motorsport is looking into it for me so let hope he comes up trumps

Very helpful chap
