i seen that then i thought that it was because it was an older type of control unit, anyone know where i can get these splitter thingys, needs to have either 1 female that spilts to 2 female. OR 2 female conections that splits to 4 female connections

None abs 1.8 turbo corsa could be lots of fun :D
