Found a great deal on some Mazda connectors! $1.59 each!

Hey hey

Two weeks ago I was browsing my favorite Chinese shopping website and stumbled upon some Mazda specific connectors...

I ordered 6 of them for $8 shipped!!!

https://www.banggood.com/Car-Set-2-P...?rmmds=myorder

I received both the male and female sides!

Just to compare...

Econoseal

Eastern Beaver sells a single male and female for $9 + shipping

These are used on the following connections:

B1-31 Turbo Control
B1-37 Turbo Precontrol
B1-38 Wastegate Control
B1-39 Purge Solenoid
B1-42 IAT (Air Temp)

Also...one of the 4 connectors that go to the transmission use a male connector from above...

P.S. I'm not sure but this connector might be used on other harnesses on the FD...But I can only confirm the ones used above...

any luck finding the fan switch connector off the back of the thermostat housing? that connector's broken on pretty much every FD i've seen and it seems important...

In that picture, the connectors look to be super low quality when you zoom in. Just sayin'
