Default Ignition wire ends

I need M3 type connectors for the distributor side of my ignition wires. I bought new Beru wires from Roger, thinking I could reuses all my ends, but the distributor side and coil wires have the later wood screw type ends that screw into the wires, not onto them. I'd prefer new ones if anybody knows a source, but I'd take used ones too. I need 12 of them.

Concur with talking to Roger, his business/expertise extend well beyond 928 and Porsche at this point.

Failing that, Kingsborne wires in Cali has a number of related parts-- not sure about M3 type, they have the woodscrew but would be worth a check as a fallback.

Or a web search yielded this-- but what is the M3 connector?

I had the same issue. Got the connectors, used, from 928 International. No problems with the fit or the transaction.

I ordered a set of ends from beruparts.com. They sent me the wrong thing. They said they no longer sell the threaded screw on m3 type ends, so they sent me what they felt like, which won't work.

Colin, it's for my 88, but I am trying to finish the set of beru cables roger sent me. My plug side connectors are correct, but the distributor side that I have won't work with these wires.
