After testing, the CLIK-Mates 1.5mm will be a good choice for any signal wire-to-board connections required as long as we're satisfied with its lifespan. The 1.25mm versions extremely difficult to crimp and have a maximum wire size of 26 awg. The DuraCliks are a good alternative as they are designed explicitly for automotive use and support ISLs or TPAs for terminal retention and positioning.
