It's almost the same as the computer psu connector.
If you want to be cheap look for an used computer atx connector and cut it to fit your controller :)

No, it's not the same as in the computer, it's just similar...

What about 12 pins atx?

Have you measure the dimensions of the connector and compare to normal atx connector dimensions? I mean are the pins and holes sames dimensions?

They look like Molex connectors, and they are available from lots of electronic shops.  No Bets, tho.

TTFN,
Dennis

Yes but 12 pins atx are rare.
Normal ATX (Molex) are 24 pins......

But like I said before you can use old computer atx 24 pins connector and cut it to the right amount of connectors.

O well 12 pins atx is also cheap ;D

Thank you Alan! This connector seems exactly I'm looking for!

Could you please provide a link to this item on eBay? Actually there are many 12-pins ATX connector there, but I have not found one as in the picture you attached to your last post. Most 12-pins ATX connector on eBay are for PC and not compatible with GM Controller.

Thank you!
