durable resistor housing for antitheft app.
ok, here's a few thoughts for you on the TOS sensor replacement -> antitheft 'key'.....
first, a 1/4" panel mount phone jack and right angle plug (about $8 from radio whack) could do the job. solder resistor(s) into cap on plug. pretty robust and not too big. need 3 connectors? use a stereo set. i captured some images out of an old electronics surplus catalog to show the parts and what you can find them for out in the wild.
second idea: for 2 connections, get say a 6.5" chrysler door speaker and a stub of wiring harness. the speaker side has a tab mount and the harness connector will friction hold if you break off the locktab on the speaker side. solder and cover with hot glue or epoxy and it's sealed well enough to carry in your pocket.
