Ok. There are 2 types of these connectors. There is a smaller version and a larger version.
The picture I have enclosed is the larger version which is what I am looking for.
I need a 5 pin and a 9 pin.
I believe these connections are found in pinball machines usually, but from time to time you do see them in arcade games.
If anyone can help me find a 5-pin and a 9-pin of these I would grealty appreciate it.
Thanks.

If you can't easily find them or are like me, too cheap to buy them, then you can use the larger sized paper clip to cut a set of pins.

I did this on the Smash TV I got from you a while back. I cut them something like 1" or 1-1/2" and pushed them into one connector. Line up the other connector and press it on. It's a fairly snug fit, so you won't need to add tape to secure it unless you want some extra insurance.

Damn, Johnny......
I'm willing to pay for them, so I would rather go with trying to get the pins first before I go through your route.
Thanks though, very creative.

It was late, I was a couple of connectors from a working Smash TV. I didn't even know what they're called, much less want to have to wait for them to arrive after ordering them.

Instant gratification, not necessity, is the mother of invention.

Part number wanted is MWWS156-1605 (5 pin) and MWWS156-1609 (9 pin).
I used to carry the 7 pin version but ITW screwed up the last order and sent the wrong ones. I'll probably carry the 24 pin version again...eventually.
Part number MWWS156-1624. These are cut to length so would work with any pin count.
