Default need help sourcing OEM Honda wires, terminals, and connectors

Does anyone know of or that can provide me a website that has the terminals, connectors, and color coded wires that Honda uses?

also are all MALE/FEMALE terminals the same on all year model Honda's?
I been searching and am having trouble finding someone who sells all this.
Honda to only sells harnesses all together, and under the electrical connectors section arn't all the connectors..

thanks..

PM Davgoat. He's probably got a used harness laying around. Also, in the boarder ^ there are different vendors and one is a used USDM car parts for s2000's source. This should be in the "want to buy" section of the marketplace.

I was researching what I needed to make an adapter harness for an AFC-Neo and found that the plugs on the computer are made by Tyco Electronics. Its possible they also make the other plugs also. I requested some samples and received them, so its worth a shot if you find what you need. Here is the info for the ECU plugs and connector.

I plan to wire tuck my car but I dislike cutting and soldering. I'd prefer to use a plug within instead of a solder or butt connector. I also plan to use grommets and all when running from inside the car to outside. I want to do this as OEM as possible. tie wrap clips and all!!

So if I were in need of extending a wire, I would require 2 plugs (I'm not going to use one plug for one wire, it would be a plug with say 10-13 positions)

If you guys have comments to that or better ideas please let me know.. Thanks

You may consider solder shrink. They're strong shrink tubes with solder rings in them that melt with a heat gun. They're industrial grade and you can get them with waterproof adhesive in the sleeves too.

If you're dead set on replacing everything, you can use a pin extractor and keep the housings. The pins are cheap and can be applied with a purpose built crimper. It's a PITA to do a lot of them though no matter what route you go.

I didn't know about that kind of heat shrink. Actually sounds good.

As far as your second statement, your saying to get a pin extractor to remove the entire wire from both original end housings, get a new and lengthened wire with new pins and just install back correct, but that it will be a PITA? Thats what you meant?
Instead of cutting in half and adding 2 new connectors? correct?

You can just de-pin one side, shorten the wires, and then crimp new pins on and insert them back into the housings. It's tedious, but easy if you're patient.

I would just hack the wires in half in a dry hidden area and solder, and shrink wrap them. One big peice of glue impregnated shrink wrap over the entire splice group will seal it up.
