Question Where to find these connectors?

Notice the clip above the water pump inlet for the connector, it's the one holding the A/C compressor electric run - I looked in Help section at the auto parts store and didn't find much of anything - I wanted to find some of these to punch down various electric runs on my truck - I need it for a couple diff't size of tubing:



Thanks.

I think that will only be a OEM item... If you are unable to get them or cost too much.. try the junk yards.

Also suggest you look a your local Electrical Store or Hardware store and see what they have in plastic or rubber coated retainer (ie like fuel and brake hold down or something like those).

I am using a lot of those metal/rubber hold downs.

I have some of the metal/rubber hold downs for my fuel lines. More than anything, I'm going to be tapping off my block to route wires...and I have factory holes in my crossmembers and across the top of the radiator support which would allow me to run my wires if I just had some connectors.

I might end up trying to find this in the NAPA catalogue, they often have crap like this. I really expected to find these stupid things over in the "HELP" section where all the Dorman adapters are, but all I could find were the heater/steam/radiator quick-clamps.

Well, like a jackass, I didn't look in my Fastenal catalogue before posting this. I found this out:

They are called "wire loom routing clips" and can be found on Google as such.

Fastenal sells packs of 25 that would work. These are the various GM part numbers for the ones they sell:

GM 8911472 (Fastenal p/n 0162622)
GM 3816659 (Fastenal p/n 0162623)
GM 8917320 (Fastenal p/n 0162623)
GM 8911497 (Fastenal p/n 0162621)

Link: http://www.fastenal.com/web/products...99842583&Nty=0

Through Google, I found this website, which has pictures of connectors:

http://www.rustrepair.com/APP2/onlin...V-AV.MI-AV6867

The ones Fastenal are selling above look like "Style 1" as shown on that site.

I am personally looking for "Style 3"

I will come back and update this thread for the sake of seach keywords later. If I find anything worthwhile.

mrgusa.com (out of Dallas area) has a ton of connectors - some of which look like a better option. Here is a PDF:
