S197 Connector List

I put this guide together for people who are getting deep into the electrical aspect of the cars.

S197 Mustang Connectors

I, for one, do not like splicing into my car's electrical system. So I started a project where, anytime I want to divert a signal, be it power or data, I would make an interconnect harness. Basically, a harness where you unplug two connectors in your car and fit yours between.

In order to do this, it is far FAR cheaper to source the terminals and connectors and pin them yourself, than to buy pigtails.

For Example:

WPT-934 (the grey connector on the top) is current $67 on Amazon

That same connector is $1.37 on Digikey

The terminals are $10 for 100+ and the tool to crimp them is $15.

You could buy spools of wire for cheap and still come out for far FAR less.

Here are some examples of interconnect harnesses I have made:
Power diverting harness at headlight switch


Power Diverting Harness at Traction Control Switch


RGB Diverting Harness

I will happily accept any additional connectors you all have found as well.
