Electrical terminals

I知 building a new dash harness for my 455 powered 81 GMC. I知 trying to find a vender/part number for some of the less common terminals. I知 installing a factory style tach, adding Retained Accessory Power, and Theater lighting. So pretty much everything will be custom. I did this conversion on my 69 many years ago, it works well.

First, I need the terminals for the connector to the instrument cluster. I知 pretty sure it痴 the same terminal as used on the later G body cars with the clear plastic circuit board.

Im also looking for ATO fuse terminals in strips of 6.

I have tried Mousier, with zero luck.


I can find ATO fuse terminals in strips of 4, I need a couple with 5 and 6 in a strip.

That dash connector is used in Squarebody trucks. Check the specialty vendors for those.

You may have to get the connector with the terminals but still pretty cheap if you need them.....

And, Kwik Wire should have them
Or, here: http://1973-1987 All Makes All Model...FFY7lyKF05TfKO

Generally speaking (pun intended), they should be either Packard or MetriPak.
