The new gauges have plugs on the end of the clump of wires, what I would like is to find the mating ends or replace the plugs completely (male and female ends). So where can I get OEM type plugs ??

The come with the pins ready to solder onto the wires and insert into the plugs. I've used them all over as I rebuild the harness. They even have the modern weatherproof ones you'd see on modern vehicles. Used those when I did the headlights and other stuff in the engine bay. 1959 Chevy 3/4-ton (pics posted soon)
