Male and female plug with pins that I would terminate to the wires. I got a steering column for my truck but it does not have a connector on it for the wires. The column has 11 wires. Has 3 wires that do not need to be terminated.

McMaster Carr, on page 751, has pin and sleeve connectors up to 12 pins (poles). They are cool looking things you assemble yourself.
Maybe not what you had in mind, but take a look...catalog page #751.

I am upgrading and creating a completely new wiring harness for my truck since I want certain options and I just went to Ecology and took wiring harnesses from other late model cars and used those connectors. It is a cheap and and all the connectors will be "standard" automotive. just a thought. good luck! | | | | | Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 725 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 725 | Why not keep it Chevy? All the '70s and '80s "C" trucks, (and probably cars, too,) have a multipin firewall plug for the harness. It should work fine and might even have the same color codes as your column.
Best wishes,

If not, check any electrical supply house for Deutsch connectors (Distributed thru LADD).
