I'm sorry mate, I completely missed this part when responding to the
other "pin extraction" issue.

OK, yeah, that would work, and would also eliminate concern over moving
the higher P&H currents thru the ecm-style connector's possibly
diminutive pins (the "secondary" connector). But we're back to the
physical/intrusive splice again. Growl.

I guess you're suggesting that if the user gets all the connectors, and
good ones, and that if the scheme allows him to go back to square one,
then splicing might not be so ugly an option? oK, maybe.

SEFI would still be OK for WPs, if w/8-cyl, you used two 4-pin WPs (an
8-pin isn't available, but 6-pin still is). It's a good bit of crimping,
tho. Golly, life is sooooo hard! MetriPacks would work too, and would be
much smaller; available in more pin numbers, too. I dunno, let's see how
others feel about this.

Yup, heh, I spose you're right about that. There's just something so
'final' tho, about cutting into a harness wire. :)  See, even an EE gets
squeemish when the blood starts flowing on the operating room floor.
