    where to find oem connectors?

    anyone know where can i find those oem connectors? They are for Acura TSX Navi. Acura doesn;t sell them, unless you buy the completely wire harness and that will cost 1500+

    You might have better luck if you had some pictures of the actual connectors, the diagrams alone don't give a very good idea of the dimensions to anyone who's not intimately familiar with the specific acura connectors.

    The second two look quite proprietary by those diagrams, but the first two look like they could possibly be (or be similar to) one of the types of standard rectangular connectors.
    But don't take it from me! here's a quote from a real, live newbie:

    Don't know how much luck you have, especially the last two. Another option is to hit some junkyards and yank em out of wrecks.

    junkyard or whole harness from the dealer.... either that or you COULD make them work without the actual connectors, you'll either need to get terminals & insulate them or solder direct & come out with your own connector... depends on the situation really...

    I now the main harness for my car (which has half the ends you'd want) is around $1,100

    That's tough. Normally, they don't even bother selling the harnesses on ebay, too much pain taking them out so they cut em up.

    Look on ebay for someone parting out the car you're interested in, then ask them to see if they have what you want. I've gotten some things that way.

    May want to try these guys. Their online catalog is unavailable, but they carry a vast array of automotive connectors.
