1971 C10 Parking light connector - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Anybody know where you can get the connector that goes through the radiator support for the parking light on a 71 C10? It is part of the front wiring harness not the pigtail on the light itself. Thanks for any help.

Are you wanting the wires & rubber plug that fits the radiator support hole?

If I remember right it's part of the harness, it's not separate I think.

Yes that is what I am look for. It has the rubber grommet that pops through the radiator support and yes it is part of the front light harness. The ones on mine are hard and cracked. Could get them from an old harness but may run into the same problem. I know someone makes them as they are making new harnesses just finding who is the issue.

From the picture of the LMC on line it's made to the park lamp housing.

I think that picture it shows the pigtail that is on the light that plugs into the connector that I am looking for.

It maybe. It's been awhile since I took mine apart. But if I remember right it's made to the wiring harness so you would have to buy the whole wiring harness to get the other side of the plug.

Manes truck parts has it but as stated it's part of the head light harness. You can see the ends in the picture.

Yeah I am afraid I may have to buy a new harness if I can't find them.

I did find these and I think they will work just cost to much by two and I am a third of the way to a new harness.

How about some door jam seals for the wiring to pass through the door. May work out fine then again may not who knows.
