Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What crimping tool is required for 0.6mm terminals?

Q: Is this connector compatible with aftermarket LED license plate lights for VW?
A: Yes, provided the aftermarket LED unit uses the same 6-pin 0.6mm TE connector interface. Verify pin count and polarity against your LED unit’s wiring diagram before installation.
