Weatherpack connectors are pretty simple. For the ones with round pins you need a pin extractor which you can find at almost any autoparts store. For the ones with square or blade style contacts you can also buy a pin extractor, but I actually prefer my homemade extractor that I made from a piece of flat spring material. They do sell very nice crimpers, but you can put them together with a couple pairs of needlenose in a pinch, it just takes 4 crimps instead of one.
