ABS connector car side
Hi guys
For the fire damage car repair I found new cable harnesses for the wheels to the engine bay, with like-new white barrels.
On the car side wiring loom I soldered connectors from pad-wear sensors onto the wiring loom as the original ones crumbled to dust.
This is also the case with the speed sensor connectors. They are slightly different from the ones on the pad-wear wires (square vs rounded).
Are these available somewhere? Or should I buy some used speed sensors and sacrifice those...
cheers

That appears the only viable solution if you want to maintain the original look without buying new engine bay harness. Others have replaced the factory connectors on both sides of that junction with WeatherPak or other environmentally sealed automotive connectors. Since the wires/terminals are molded inside the factory plugs it would be a fair bit of work to reproduce a suitable replacement.
