Re: Rake and Trail

Uninsulated rear light connectors wanted

Im after the loom to rear light connectors,the metal blade parts to replace the connectors which are frayed and corroded.
I cant find any as they are right angled and not spade connectors, more like knife blade connectors as in Frankensteins switches.
