Default where to get weather pack connectors??

I asked in another area on here but not getting any replys.
We're you guys sourcing weather pack or connectors for your wiring project?
I've been looking at some kits on ebay but curious who is the cheaper or better to deal with for a supplier on them

I like being able to buy a kit, but this much more costly than piecing it together. Amazon offers a male and female cavity, the terminals and insulators together in one package.

Be aware, those little connectors end up a ton more expensive than most people think. Connector body, terminals, seals, tpa etc. They all add up quickly

I like Mouser and Waytek Wire. I'm also not a big fan of Weather pack connectors and much prefer the newer Metripack connectors. They come in 150, 280, 480, 630 series depending on load requirements.

Download the Delphi catalog and go nuts :-)

I agree.

Weatherpack connectors are yesterday's news and I didn't like them when they were new. Metripack all the way for me.

They were really nice at the time for the problem

1-30A, universal 1-6 pin connectors, 22-10ga wire, one tool for all. Simple M/F and non-specific terminal assignments, relatively inexpensive

Considering the prior solution was M/F spade terminals sans connector bodies, weather packs were quite nice
