Hi Neil, The Pico connectors are kinda crappy. These Tyco/AMP terminals are just like what the factory used. The part numbers I reference are the Tyco/AMP part #. You should be able to find a supplier in Canada that has the same stuff if you look around a little bit. 1/4" Female 18-14AWG - 42281-2 http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/TE-Connectivity-AMP/42281-2/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMv9Q1JI0Mo%2ftfNCGPfydAxp 1/4" Female 16-12AWG - 60249-2 http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/TE-Connectivity/60249-2/?qs=%2fha2pyFadugst4yErqcGg%252bj6sruFd%2f76AKc2hbi%252bbM4%3d White Nylon Female Housing for 1/4" Female Faston- 480054-3 http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/TE-Connectivity/480054-3/?qs=%2fha2pyFaduhKvyS96ld35%2falmcABPw07Au%2fEygWJc1I%3d 1/4" Male 18-14AWG - 42460-2 http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/TE-Connectivity-AMP/42460-2/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMv9Q1JI0Mo%2fte9Cl%2fSft5SY 1/4" Male 14-10AWG - 60701-1 http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/TE-Connectivity-AMP/60701-1/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMt24PW2WNEtLyX8WvijEP3k White Nylon Male Housing for 1/4" Male Faston - 480053-3 http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/TE-Connectivity/480053-3/?qs=%2fha2pyFadui3VnsIFNgp8sMy85CKItjxlzufAF4MGpU%3d Here is a good (and very affordable) ratcheting crimper that does both crimps at the same time.
