You can order them through the dealer too… The crimpers that Travis posted are a MUST. I have never used the Harbor Freight ones. I have a set of Blue Points. DO NOT USE Conventional crimpers like these: [http://www.channellock.com/data/default/images/catalog/medium/909\_lg.jpg](http://www.channellock.com/data/default/images/catalog/medium/909_lg.jpg) [![](http://image.made-in-china.com/2f0j00mCbQMcEPLqow/Crimper-Stripper-Plier-ANT-CSP-205-.jpg) ](http://image.made-in-china.com/2f0j00mCbQMcEPLqow/Crimper-Stripper-Plier-ANT-CSP-205-.jpg) ---

In fact, I got mine at Parts Express, but have inspected the ones from HF and they are the exact same thing. ---

In fact, I got mine at Parts Express, but have inspected the ones from HF and they are the exact same thing. Mine look a little different. I’ll have to dig them out and post a pic. They are double hinged, non-ratcheting. I tried looking them up on snap-on’s site, but they must be discontinued. ---

> [@Kimbo Slice vs Tank Abbott](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/kimbo-slice-vs-tank-abbott/43288/6): > > All I need is the metal pins. You guys are saying that they aren’t universal?? I thought it was just a common thing. Every manufacturer uses different style terminals and not all terminals within the same manufacturer vehicle are the same. Normally each different kind of weatherpack connector has different terminals aside from the obvious male on one side and female on the other. If I remember correctly [DIYautotune.com](http://DIYautotune.com) sold a couple different master kits with terminals and connectors. Granted that is geared more toward MS stuff which is based on GM style sensors. However they also had the crimp tools for the terminals too. Take your time and make sure everything 100% right or you’ll be chasing electrical gremlins for a long long time.
