Where to buy?

Any special tool I need to crimp the wiring to the pins for the molex or will a regular wire crimper do the trick? First time doing this so I don't want to make another trip if I don't have to. LOL.

Probably, but I just crimped them with a regular cheap crimper/cutter/stripper tool.
I went in to Radio Shack looking for the exact same thing. They asked if they could help and took me straight to the bin and pointed out the correct drawer...shocked the hell out of me. I too thought they only dealt with cell phones these days.
Jeff AMN:
My Radio Shack is really good about knowing their stock, but the biggest issue with that place now is the loss of what they used to carry. It used to be that you could walk into any RS store with a part number and they'd have it. Now they say, "uh, we don't carry that anymore, but we have some Monster Cables over there if you need anything for your home theater setup."
Yeah, man. I came in looking for a bunch of capacitors, molex plugs, fuses, and solder but I'm going to walk out with overpriced HDMI cables instead... ::)

Went to Radio Shack and all they had were 9 pin headers that were 2 rows. I need a 9 pin header in 1 straight line. Any other ideas?
urbecrisch:
I found a few websites that sell the 9 pin molex terminal but I can use my old one if I can remove the pins. Most websites I have been to have what seems overpriced pin removal tools. Anything around the house Ican use to remove .156" pins? Has anyone tried using a bobbi pin?
