Im trying to find somewhere that sells the plugs that you see used typically in automotive applications. You make them up by crimping a Spade, or receptacle onto the end of a wire, and they push them into a plug. all the ones ive seen are made from white plastic.The 2 wire ones are typically T shaped... Anyone know which ones i mean? ive tried everything i can think of searching for them on google, but my searches come up with nothing

try www.premierwiring.co.uk and have a look through there connectors you should find them there and decent service atb andy
