I'm having trouble finding a suitable connector for a project I'm currently working on. I'm in the middle of installing a set of prosport gauges in my TII and I want to have a quick disconnect for the boost gauge to guard against theft. I originally planned on using a USB cable because it has the same amount of wires (5) as my gauge and can put up with the abuse of I'm going to be putting it through. Much to my chagrin, one of the terminals appears to be a semiconductor having around 600ohms resistance IIRC.

Does the 7club know of any compact 5pin connectors suitable for the purpose I have in mind?

 

DIN connector. like the old school keyboard connectors. its a friction type plug, meaning you dont have to screw anything.
