I'm upgrading my VP-X sport to a pro. I have the additional J8 connector and pins (thanks, Chad!). I purchased the Molex tool that Steinair sells for these terminals. It comes with a slotted guide (silver part in the photos) to hold the pins securely, but the problem I'm having is the pins don't fit! The rectangular section of the pins are just a tiny bit too wide.
So, do I just take off the guide, or do I get out the jeweler's files and make the guide slots a bit wider?
