Abstract
An electrical connector assembly supports a number of terminals as they extend through a wall such as one might find in a headlamp housing to mate with mating terminals outside the housing. The electrical connector assembly includes an elongated conduit or housing for supporting the terminals as they extend through the wall, where the conduit has a flange extending radially outwardly from one end of the conduit. The connector assembly also includes a seal having a jacket portion extending around the conduit adjacent the flange, and a skirt portion extending radially outwardly from the conduit and over the flange to effect a seal between the electrical connector assembly and the wall.
