The sockets #205090-1 and pins #205089-1 require a special AMP crimping tool #201966-1 and "positioner" #201966-5 totaling about $440.00. Did you just happen to have one of these tools lying around? They also have pins and sockets (66569-3 and 66570-3)for this connector which are soldered not crimped. Did you consider using them? How did you decide to secure your connector to the firewall? From your picture in LNN, it looks like you have some sort of strain relief device in the cable clamp. Is this also an AMP part and did you use it on both sides of the firewall? Thanks, Angier
