Default DIY sensor wire questions

Has anyone built their own? I would like to, but cant find any info on what the parts are called or where to find them. Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks

Go here for the ROAR rulebook:

And scroll down to page 45. Complete list of the connectors with part numbers.

Thanks, those are referring to the male end of the sensor. Any idea of the female end?

Will this tool crimp this small of connector?

Im confused if the pin is .5mm or 1.5mm? If it's 1.5 this tool should work fine, correct?

Both ends share the same connector. But why do you want to build your own sensor cable?

If they were expensive, I could see......but $4-5? Hardly worth it.
