Replacement dash connectors and pins?

Searched a bit but could not find where to find connectors and more importantly just the pins? any leads would be a big help.

you may be better off to get a harness.
I know what you are going through,and I wasn't gonna spend "20 weeks" to rewire,repin etc a Freakin Harness,..Life is too short!

Called the "SOURCE" now but ill check it out, just wasn't to sure if the connectors would accept a generic pin or if they had to be from a RX-7 original connector.

What specifically are you looking for? There was a thread posted about this. Read it and you should find what you need for everything but the ECU and switch gear.

Radioshack is definitely not going to have what you need. If anyone finds a source for the 2.8mm (.110) width terminals for things like the headlamp and wiper switches, Logicon, etc, please let us know.

cant seam to track down a solution to this. Just need lights on original switch to pass inspection. I had taken the pins out (thrown away) and just went to a toggle switch but the inspector did not like that idea so that why they are missing.

.110, which I'm still looking for. You could salvage pins from other harnesses. When you rebuild/replace the harness, I suggest wiring in a relay to protect the harness from burning out again.

Also, the headlight switch may have cold solder joints, you can rebuild the switch. https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-gen-archive-72/write-up-rebuilding-your-headlight-switch-383384/
