    Default H4 globe socket

    Hey guys I am rewiring the headlights on my Z20 and am having trouble finding the original socket crimp pins or a H4 globe socket that is able to be re pinned.

    So far ashdown ingram sells a H4 socket but with ~50mm fly lead but I would still have to splice cables together, I would prefer to run an uncut cable if possible.

    Any ideas?

    Pretty much after something like this but without the the pigtail so I can crimp my own cables:

    aren't the metal bits relatively standard 90deg crimp fittings?

    So I assumed another connector used the same pins as the h4 socket. Your right old corrollas its exactly what you have described.
