Sorry...Been busy

I stopped into my local dealership, and they could not give me a part number for the pins to fit in the fuse box

They let me look through all the ones they had, and while a couple might work, I am not sure. They said that they do not have all of them that are available though. I will get out a pair of calipers tonight and measure one, as well as take a couple of photos of it.

And no, you will not find these at Radio Shack...

Also if you guys find out about the pin in the Harness and where to get it plz share.

You won't really need the pins..all I did with mine is push the wires into the socket in the fuse box..I installed mine for a few months now and it never came off..

Retarted question but i'll still ask - anyway to check if stalk works once i swap it on my car without sticking wires anywere? Is there a fuse that should be "hot" as soon as i turn the fog switch on? (without even having fogs, just the switch)

Look on the bottom side of the fuse cover...'Fog Light' 15A...I believe.

As to the size of the pins that I have been trying to find. They are 3mm wide and 1mm the other way.

So i stopped by dealership to see if they can tell me exactly what pins i should use. Save yourself time - they have no idea.
Servise guy pulled out his "emergengy" electrical repair suitcase with shiiiitloads of pins and connectors and went "pick which ever ones u like" lol
THe only one i could find that are 3mm x 1mm at the end (part that goes inside the deepest) are below. They are small, so my camera couldnt pick up the details the way i'd like to to but here they are. I'm concerned about the "other end" it seems kinda big and bulky. Let me know if they look anything like ones u've used.

Same thing I found at my dealership...And I also could not get a good photo of the damn things...

You need the other end though, that is the piece that is sticking up inside the fusebox already.

I don't get it. U're saying that the pin in my pics is the one that's already inside the fusebox/socket/whatevr u call it hole that the wire is supposed to be in... right?

If so i can just go back to the dealer and look for a pin that perfectly "clicks" into this one?
Aslo, just to be on the same page: pin i posted is inside the fusebox with 1mm x 3mm DOWN and that bulky end on TOP?

Pull the plug out of the fusebox that was posted back in the OP. Look inside the plug and you will see that you need the 'female' side of that to mate with what is 'fixed' in the fusebox itself. That female pin needs to be put inside the plug.

This is why I haven't reposted a p/n on this pin...It is really hard to find.

As someone else already posted, you can just jam the wires into the plug as well...

Just went back to the dealer to get female pin. They don't have one that fits into that skinny opening in the fusebox. Neither do AutoZone and PepBoys

And all that running around without being 100% sure stalk will even work haha.

I guess i'll just stick wires in there for now till i find a pin.

bt2580 - thanx for your help. really appriciate it.

I'm getting my fog/stalk kit on monday, pigtails on wednesday so unless weather will fukk me up i'll install fogs on the weekend.
