Default Need sensor lead plugs & contacts please

Hi- I'm trying to make up a short sensor lead or two with colour co-ordinated wires. Wire is no problem (Maplins) but neither Maplins or RS appear to stock the plugs (housings) or contacts.
I'm finding it difficult to track down without the correct info,-Maker, Part no. etc., putting in'6 pin housing' or similar is getting me nowhere.
Could anyone point me to a supplier or at least let me know the correct title for these..Cheers, Gord...

If you ask me, the margin for error in doing this yourself is quite high!

T would imagine that http://www.nexusracing.com/index.php?cPath=140_243_401 would sort out whatever you might need.

What you need are JST ZH connectors. You wont get them in maplin or the likes.
Farnell will have them, http://uk.farnell.com/

The part number for the terminal is 3357533 about 3 pence each
The part number for the 6 way housing is 3357570 about 10 pence each
Part number for the crimp tool 3357934 about £380

the cheap crimp tools available for servo connectors wont crimp these.

You might be better finding some made up already as above

Contacts & housings have arrived-not the crimp tool tho!
Contacts are the size of bed bugs and about as friendly!
Going to try soldering instead of crimping..
Ended up with 100 housings & 600 contacts (minimum order!) so if anyone need some, let me know!
Cheers, Gord...
