Delphi Metri-Pack 280 series connectors

Bob,

Can you get these or recommend a source? I'm looking for the C206 connector for the C5 (the spare power pigtail located in the right front footwell) so I can connect an XM radio.

Thanks!

I am not really sure where Bob is!! He has been on vacation twice in the last month and a half and I am not sure if he has returned mentally! I will ask him to post an answer...

Hello,

Let me do some research and see if I can get just a connector. I will post back.

Bob,

Any further info on this? If not, do you know any way to contact Delphi directly?

Thanks.

I have finally been able to get some info back from GM. The problem has been the pricing, and verifying the part is correct because of the price. The female side of the connector comes without the electrical connectors and is 2.01 your cost. The pin connectors that GM tells me go into this connector are 3.09 ea your cost. The male side of the connector comes with the leads, but lists for 66.29 and your cost is 46.40 . Even GM Parts Technical assistance felt it was terrible and checked with the pricing and purchasing dept. They just came back, that is the price, Packard Electric is very proud of their product.
If you have a fax, email that number to me at parts@fichtnerchevrolet.com and I will fax you an end view blowup of the connector.

Bob,

Thanks so much for tracking this down. I'll e-mail you the FAX number. Depending on which side of the plug I actually need I'll get back to you - the $46 figure for the male side is mind blowing
