Anyone know of an oem connector that fits? I've been in the junkyard checking all sorts of Nissan and Infiniti cars and I ain't found sh*t:)http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/JewGal/DSCN1595.jpg?t=1232211785

I know I can use insulated quick disconnects, but still...

go look at sidemarkers off of nissans. i forgot which car it was, i think it was older model altima's.
also s13 sidemarker uses it. only one side will fit, other side is different. im talking about the yellow ones in the front. take it off and test fit and go junkyard and look for same one.
or if u want new parts, iirc westco nissan carries em

The side markers for the s13, some altimas, j30s, etc. work perfectly (i got some yesterday) for replacing the kouki 180sx position lights, especially since they use the same bulbs, but kouki signal lights use larger 921 bulbs, and I kinda didn't wanna downgrade'em.

Nah, just the bulbs are bigger and a different type. N/M, I decided to use 1/4" QD's...

the turn signals use 13 watt bulbs

parking lights use 5 watt bulbs

big difference. 5 watt isnt sufficient for turn signal usage.
