Ask a buddy that is around industrial electrical stuff, He/she should have some electrical set screw terminal blocks that would make the splice if needed. At this point in time, I don't think I want to let go of anymore parts off my parts car, since I bought the '66. I am already regretting selling the 12V wiper motor, and I am considering converting the '66 to IRS suspension eventually. -- Russ Wolfe '71 Fastback AT '66 Fastback MT (not running yet) russw@classicvw.org http://www.classicvw.org ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
