Default Igntion coil wiring

Hello Everyone,

Let me say first, I don't own a Honda, I'm a VW guy.

BUT I am using a Honda part on my VW build. I am running Megasquirt stand alone and decided to use the 2004 (ish) Accord 2.4L Ignition coils for my build. They fit perfect and look awesome when installed. Something unexpected in this car. Anyway, I need the wiring pigtails for them still. I have been to a few junk yards in the area and none even have hondas past 98. So thats out, Google search comes up with nothing, and the dealer wants me to buy the entire harness. So I have come to you to see where can I buy these suckers! Any website or even from you if you have spares (need 4). After market, or what ever, I'm not picky I just need these plugs asap.

Thanks for your help!

Are you looking for the electrical connectors for each injector?

Parts stores sell electrical connectors for headlights. If you take the coil in to the store, you may get lucky and find a headlight electrical connector to fit the coil.

Connectors for the ignition coils. I went to the auto store and no pig tails fit that they have in stock.

The Honda ignition coil connectors should be 3-P; generally, headlight connectors are 2-P.

I didn't find any aftermarket suppliers that have individual 3-P ignition coil connectors that would fit the Honda ignition coils.

On ebay, the only individual coil connectors are for other makes such as Toyota, domestic cars, etc.

There is a Honda Accord engine harness for $99.99 + $8 shipping on ebay though.

As an alternative, maybe try looking at some other make ignition coils for your VW project.

I have looked at other coils and Honda coils are the best ones for what I'm doing. Of course every other coil finding connectors is easy, but coils require circuit board mods that I dont want to mess with. I guess there had to be some bad part about honda coils.

I reeaalllly didn't want to buy the entire harness...but............bought. dammit.
