    Molex plug removal?

    Anyone know where I can get the tool to remove the P4 4-pin molex plug on a pc power supply? They have small square pins.

    Thanks.

    The round pins are easy to remove with a small screwdriver. It doesnt work for the small square pins found in the atx and p4 connector.

    I thought I had seen one on KustomPcs but their site is down.

    I bought a sleeving kit from ebuyer and it contained a couple of tools which allow removal of molex and other connectors.

    i purchased a molex replacement kit, blue molex connectors for my old power supply. These obviously included the molex removal tools, cheap plasticky things they were, and the molexes were pish, so i sent em back.
    You're better off getting the KustomPC's ones, as I'm getting a set, and i think they're worth the extra

    The kit I got has metal removal tools as well as replacement connectors.

    I got the blue kit just to use the tool. Have finsihed with the tool and have put it back in the packaging so basically have a full brand new kit. If anyone is planning on buying the kit I could sell you mine for a bit cheaper than KustomPC sell it.

    The tools in that kit are metal and good quality.

    The tools in the ebuyer kit were also metal, shame they're out of stock.

    I suppose AC Ryan is better quality?
