As a replacement for OEMBlinker relay

I bought a battered 900SS (900SL) and am Restore.
In this situation, RearBlinker decided to change to ultra-small type LED's for various reasons.
The front is a Cowl recessed type, but since this is part of the body design, it is used as is, and the light bulbs inside are not converted to LEDs, but are left as they are.
This would be a hassle with bulbs in the Front and LEDs in the Rear, but times have evolved and there is now ICRelay, which supports a variety of wattages and makes everything look good.

The problem is replacing that ICRelay with the original Relay.
For ordinary Japanese cars, it is a 2-pole universal layout, so all you have to do is plug in the Conversion Connector that comes with the Relay, but unfortunately, DUCATI is a 3-pole Relay.
In addition, the connector is fixed to the body of the car, and the Relay is inserted into it, which is the opposite arrangement from that of domestic cars.
(For domestic cars, the RelayBody is mounted on the car body, and the Connector extending from the Harness is inserted into it.)

So we decided to disconnect and discard the UniversalConnector (Female side) from Relay and make our own Conversion Connector that would be Male-Male.
After carefully checking the terminal shape of the OEMRelay, I realized that it is the same as the H4Headlight Connector.

So we purchased a Kit to create H4Connector.

Although the connector shape is correct, the H4 terminal and the OEMRelay terminal have different widths.
The OEMRelay terminal width is about 6.4mm, and this H4 terminal is about 7.7mm wide, about 1.3mm thicker, so Quantity:Pair (for Left and Right) and shave 0.6mm each to make it ready.

However, the terminals are generated by folding a flat plate 180° with PRESS, so if both ends of the terminal are shaved, the folded part is lost and becomes RoseRose.
To avoid RoseRose, before shaving both ends, solder is poured inside the terminal to fix the PRESSED board firmly in place, and then both ends are shaved...Relay terminal is completed!
We were able to connect the Relay receiving Connector on the car body side and the replaced ICRelay Connector while converting well.

This time, the terminal included in the H4Connector set was the only one that worked without failure, so it did not come into play, but I purchased it as a spare in case the work failed.
Ordinary zinc-plated terminals (not gold-plated), very ordinary in shape and strength.
It is often used in the Connector for Large current, so it is a good idea to have it as a spare so you do not have to struggle in case of an emergency. View detail
