Default Coil Conversion

Hey all,
I have a technical question. Not sure this is the place to acquire this kind of info but I'm planning on doing a Coil conversion to my Impreza classic and decided to change the connector while I'm at it.
Does anyone know what AWG the 4 wires leading to the coil pack connector are? I was going to get a Deutsch DTM connector to replace the OEM one but I know it accepts wires between 16 and 22 AWG and didn't know if the wires are in that range.

Here attached are pictures of the OEM connector and wires.





Thanks,
ET

The wire is 18awg I think, but not thin-wall type, so the insulation is quite thick. DTM's are good for 18-22 AWG I think, so you should be fine. DT connectors have terminals for 16-18 AWG so they might be another option.
