I removed my chewed up 3-wire plastic plug at the relay board where the Alternator plugs in. I replace the three spades with modern copper spades - but they have no locking tabs (so I can not use the plastic plug). I thought it would be fine without the plug .. but the wires feel a little loose plugged in separately. So I want to ad a replacement 3-wire plug at the relay board. Anyone know what size the lock tab female spade connector are? I see that belmetric has 6.3, but I'm thinking they may need to be bigger..?

The factory red/brown/green wires are the equivalent of 18 GA (AWG). I use 14GA in my ALT Harnesses because it’s more robust as a better technical solution.
