does anyone here make HT leads?

I only really need one (mine are all too short, but if i can get a new longest one, then the rest can all move down one)
but could be interested in a whole set

i've been looking for cables, can't find any listed with lengths

the engine is a vauxhall x20xev ecotec, so its a twin cam, with long terminals on the end of the lead.

plenty of cable on the internet to be had, all different types, colours, cotton overbraid etc, but only ever the same crappy terminals like this
eBay Item

there must be someone who can make them?

the actual cable has to be 60 - 65cm long, and be of this type

the plug terminal is 13cm tall in total

anyone got anything suitable in their garage? preferably from a vauxhall so its the same type etc, or can make one up cheap?

I've not used these guys but I've heard favorable things from others. I have no idea of price either.

I've just picked up a custom set (Ford Duratec coil , Mazda engine) from Magnacore - they are just ten minutes down the A42 from work , and did me a great deal (as this is now the third set I've had !)

I have made my own, mostly from exsisting leads that either had the wrong ends on them or were too short / long.

You have the ends already, so if you have some longer lead with the wrong ends on them, carefully remove the ends and swap them over - they are only crimped on anyway.

Just my two pence worth.
