Not sure if you guys really care, but in my search for "specialty fasteners", I found a site that sells Honda Clips and Fasteners. Talking like cowl retainers, door panel rivets, hood prop rod clip, etc. Could be useful for some people who seek new OEM looking EVERYTHING.

NutsandBolts.com - Honda Clips and Fasteners

Where are you guys buying "specialty fasteners" outside of companies like Bolt Boys and Dressupbolts.com?

Hey guys,
quick question...
I just acquired a few of these. Would I be able to utilize them for the harness ?

dont see why not.. only thing i see is that some of the male pins seem to be bent a little. I would call amphenol (i'm assuming that's what "amp" is short for, being that i never came across "amp" in my months of mil spec plug searching) and give them the numbers on the plugs and see if they can get you some new pins.. other than that, i'm sure it would work fine.

I work for an electronic recycling company here in NY and we just recently got this batch of electronic industrial material and these were in there.

Sturdy - there's not much movement in the wires near the plugs (and the whole harness will be wrapped. so that should help)
casing - These are plastic.. its why I asked if I'd be able to use them. i don't know how much heat it can withstand...
Pins - does anyone know, around how many pins will I be using just on the engine? injectors, sensors, alt etc etc.
Bent pins - I have about 5 of these, so I can switch out the pins...(my guess...) also, I looked up the part number, and amp/tyco makes em... so yeah.
