Looking for a 57 headlight switch connector (pigtail). Does anyone know who might sell them?

I'm pretty sure you can get one from American Autowire.

No luck there
If anyone hears of a supplier, let me know.
In the meantime I'll just cr4imp 1/4" F connectors on the wires and plug them into the switch.

Looks to me like it's not one connector, but several of them.....

Unless they've changed their policy, AAW won't sell you just that connector. They have it in their harness and don't sell it separate. Maybe somebody that's a jobber for them could get it, maybe not.

The contacts themselves are Packard 56, and they are available lots of places - auto supplies, Terminal Supply Co., Waytek, Del City, many more.

They have a connector for their switch, but not a stock switch. Could change switch complete, probably ready for it anyway!

Rick, thanks, if I go that way at least I can get the correct crimp connectors...
