[Shop-talk] automotive connector breakout wires

[Paul Parkanzky]

We have "U-Pull-It" style junk yards around here. If you go to one of those
you wander the lot with your own bag/small cart of tools and pretty much
attack the cars at-will. They have price lists for whatever it is you bring
back to the gate. Not sure what they'd charge for connectors with pigtails
on them but I would expect it to be very little.
