Standard BMW electric pins?

[Grrrmachine]

All the plugs in the engine bay (headlights, foglights, washer pump etc) use the same sort of round plugs to connect up to their respective parts. But does anyone know the part number for the pins they plug in to?

I've got a heated washer loom that piggybacks off the washer motor, so it's got both male and female plugs, but the male side (pins) have gone AWOL and I'd like to order replacements rather than bodge it on.

There are two types, straight and right angled, but you can buy new pins with wire tails from the stealers.
I just cut them out of E36's or E34's

It's not the plugs I need Dan, it's the pins. The only source I can find would be the little headlight loom that feeds the front parking lights:

Yes I realise that, I was thinking of this type of thing - http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-1984-1999-E ... 566cbede45

Yes! Them's the buggers! Cheers Dan.

Nearly 5 quid EACH though If only I COULD just lop 'em off an E34...

Get plugs from a scrapy and crack the casings open to remove the pins intact?

[Grrrmachine]

Trouble is, most of the things with pins are the solid objects: waterpumps, headlight bulb holders etc. You end up buying the whole unit for $$$ just to salvage a few manky pins.

Hopefully these are the right size:

Uninsulated and wont locate into the plug housing.

The male pins are used on E36 elec fan plugs, cant think what else atm

I have a spare repair kit, BMW part number 1 382 248, that contains a number of these pins/connectors and lengths of black cable.



It was purchased for a BMW E34, long since gone, so is available for a reasonable offer.
