    WTB: Wire Connectors for Euro "smiley" ellipsoids

    Need a set of wires to go with my new "euro" smileys as the wanker did not include them in the purchase and I need to wire into my lighting harness.
    Please let me know ASAP

    Thanks

        Well I need them so let me know ASAP what is reasonable. I am in Central California - San Jose Ca Bay area. I cant use my new headlights without them and the F00ker did not include them in the auction I won.
        I will give you an e30 M series center grill piece for them if interested?

          I have the wire connectors you need. 2 high beam and 2 low beam, each with 1.5-2ft of wire. One of the high beam white connector blocks was damaged and disappeared, but the actual connectors that snap into the headlight are perfectly intact and are TIGHT. The connector block really isn't needed. I haven't had the blocks on mine ever, and in over a year they haven't loosened or anything.

          I'd like $20 shipped for them.

                Just hit the local pick and pull and ganked a set of the US Ellipsoid style connectors. Turns out the US style are pretty generic and are solid plastic. The Euro connectors are brittle plastic with an area in the center that has a cut out. I pulled the connectors from a Chrysler Mini Van and they work perfect. You just have to push them in with a medium amount of force to get them to seat and then push the boot over the ends.

                Also, Kragens , Pep Boys, and the like sell the same connectors , but they are $ 4.95 per connector - Huge RIP!

                Thanks for all that replied and for the assistance!

                  Man I just love it when someone wants something, so you get it for them, then they lowball you, and you just accept it and agree on the price.

                  The a couple hours later after you've got thier parts all packed and ready to ship they renig on you and back out.

                  Ain't that the R3V way. Fucking cheap assholes.

                      Apprently Jordan still has a set. But I'd make sure you want them first. Don;t be a jerk like the first guy.

                        Dave if you are refferring to me as THE JERK. Well, if you call a person capable of detemining what connectors are needed , sourcing them ,and then extracting them from a used vehicle that is bound for the crusher. Well, then I guess I am the Jerk!

                        The nice thing is - This JERK has an extra set for the person that needs a set. Jordan has already sold his and was completely understanding about me finding a set close and available. So it appears that the only person that has a problem with it is you. Strange how I see so many of your postings that are negative. Seems to be a trend that has been duly noted by the members of this board.

                        Word to the wise - Attacking someone over the internet is retarded cause in the end there are no winners and loosers...

                        I will PM the person that needs a set to help out.

                          Glad you are helping the guy out.

                          Jordan's post does not exactly sound like it was left on good terms. I just called you a jerk, not an asshole. I didn't exactly "attack" you.

                          Man I just love it when someone wants something, so you get it for them, then they lowball you, and you just accept it and agree on the price.

                            Well knowing Jordans posts and following them in the threads dont you know that when he calls me an asshole that is actually a kind word from him?

                            He tried to help out with the parts - I am grateful for that and think he was really trying to help. I thank him for that. I needed them sooner and am resourceful so I did what everone does. They find the parts they need.

                            If Jordan wants the 15 $ for taking his time I will send it his way if money is such a factor???

                            You actually jumped on the bandwagon to attack me and thats not really thinking for yourself. No matter its expected and I have very thick skin!

                            I will definately hook the other guy up and have already PM'ed him. I will even undercut the pricing that has been offered by others... Cause thats the way I am.

                              Like I said, whatever.

                              Just a suggestion - if you are going to haggle, do it in PM. I have been there where Jordan is coming form - someone lowballs you publicly - you think you have a deal - then the guy backs out.

                              The only thing more frustrating is when someone publicly shits on the FS thread telling everyone why your price is bad.

                              Good you are hooking someone up.

                              kthxbye
