Door connector terminals. Where to get inside!

I'm rewiring my car via a PDM and things like the windows will be run off it. No more current running through the switches. I was able to find the terminals for both sides of the connector. Oddly enough, they used two different brands. Maybe they weren't back then but I doubt it.

The large terminals are Furukawa RFW. They can be found at Ballenger Motorsports
Female Ballenger CONN-100171 Furukawa X010305
Male Ballenger CONN-100168 Furukawa X010311

Small terminals are TE/AMP
Female 345206-1

Male 282374-1

I had found the pins of these connectors a few years ago on the https://connectorexperts.com/ website( i had to send them pictures and they seem to know which ones they were but they would disclose that information) My intention was to wire them the same way for my pdm setup. that website is known for charging ridiculous amounts for **** like that.
Thats a great find!

On a side note, as i went through the pdm route myself i would keep the oem switch instead of running it via the pdm. All stoppers/limit switches etc are build in the oem switch. it simplifies the whole thing by keeping it.

That was kinda my goal. Facebook is a TERRIBLE repository for knowledge.

I've been to their site before. I prefer to find the items the hard way. $60-80 for a 2 pin connector is absolutely nuts. I've been working with electronics long enough that I can find most pins, sockets and connectors with relative ease.

The PDM has limits built in that are programable. I'll still get to keep my auto function on the windows. I'll essentially have it setup where a tap goes down or up fully.

you probably figured all the information out, to me it was just easier just to leave certain stuff as a standalone but every project/everyone is different
I am curious to see how you would do it. i am new to the pdm game and i learned a lot of stuff about it in the last 2 years that i am messing with it but there's so much more to learn. I am not an expert of any sort but i absolutely love running a pdm. by far one of the best things i have done to my car.
If you dont mind me asking, what pdm are you going with ?

The car is running a MaxxECU Pro and their PDM. It's 20 outputs. 6 are also H-bridge. The windows eat up 4 outputs total but it's worth it when you see the window move like a new car. Up current is only 6-7A steady state.

I have one error. The smaller male TE/AMP terminal is 173633-1. Not certain why I cannot edit the original.
