There's no folder yet for this subject but does anyone have a UK source for these type of connectors?

Those look like the old "Tamiya" connectors they used to put on Optimates...

Should be cheap as chips on eBay.

Ciao,

Thanks JZH. I bought a set of what looked like the same connectors but were actually of a slightly different design and hence not compatible.

These look like the ones I've seen for years but clearly there are different types so I wondered if anyone knew of these particular ones. They are for Oxford heated grips and yes, they do look the same as the old Optimate connectors.

Hi skids, anything of use here?

They supply various tamiya style connectors and many other types including waterproof styles

Depending on what the problem is, Oxford can supply a replacement wiring loom: https://www.oxfordproducts.com/oxford-h ... f695l.html

Thanks m8, I'll look.

I've already been in touch with Oxford but they don't do that type of connector any more and I'd rather only molest one end the cabling.

I can buy those from my local electronic retailer, Jaycar. Not much use for you in the UK. I’d bet they’re easy to find on AliExpress.
