MSD wiring?

Does anyone make a "plug and play" harness that can be used to connect MSD wiring to the Bosch CDI harness??

Rather than inserting seperate spade connectors (from the MSD wiring) into the existing CDI harness, I'd like to use a plug of some sort. The spade connectors don't seem secure to me.

Any other alternatives? I don't want to butcher the existing CDI harness if I can help it.

As far as I know, nobody makes such a harness. You could make one yourself. If you can find a broken 6pin CD unit you could cut it up to use the plug. Alternatively you could make a wooden block to hold all the spade connectors and epoxy the spades in place in the wood block.

I guess there isn't a vendor that sells the 6 pin plug anywhere?



Wait a second....I could just remove the wires from the existing harness that plugs into the CDI and put them into an off the shelf connector. Then use the other half of the off the shelf connector for the MSD wires.

No cutting or splicing.
