affordable weather-pack crimper

[Clint Corbin]

I don't know if the weather-pack is the BEST connector, but it is a very 
good connector if assembled properly (of course, that last bit applies to 
any connector).  Look under the hood of any new GM car and that is pretty 
much all you see.  And while I realize that auto manufactures are always 
looking for ways to reduce costs, they also have to make sure there cars 
are reliable enough so that warrantee repairs don't eat them alive.  I have 
used weather-pack connectors in a couple of places on my old pickup and I 
have been very happy with the results.
