Does anyone know a good source for factory grade bullet connectors like you find inside an outboard engine? There are a million places to buy the cheap ones but that's not what I'm after.

I've found a couple places that sell a 10-connector kit made by CDI Electronics (part # CDI911-9783). Are these high quality connectors?

many thanks,
Theo

I buy Anchor brand marine bullet (also known as snap) connectors at my local chandlery. I also get the plastic sleeves if needed. Most box stores don't carry these in marine grade. $10.00 per 25 at Hamilton Marine.

The expensive ones are the same, only bought at a dealer.

Phil, thanks. I've looked around on the web and the Ancor Splashproofs look like they'll fit the bill. Unless someone here can tell me the quality is sub-par I guess I'll order them. Widely available at ~$17 per 25 pack.
