F plug connectors
Discussion
For some reason my builder has cut off the sky supplied cable connectors when running cables under new kitchen to new TV location.
Anyhow have to re-attach the two sky cables back to the HD box, bought some simple cheap ones but they look cheap and are bare metal, so wondering where I can locate similar ones to the sky supplied items (see crap picture) or something similar, or does it really not matter?

The 'Sky' ones in the pic are crimped on with a special compression tool. You need simple twist on F connectors. That cable is the 'skinny' shotgun cable, so you need the small size F cons, not the regular size. They can be tight to twist on.
thankstight to twist over the cable or to the box?
mine are something like this, they didn't mention small or large
