joining wires for Indicator
Hi All ,
Drew kindly gave me some indicators ( std ones ) . As these have no connectors going to have cut and join wires together . Don't have a soldering iron , whats the next best way , could I use box connector ( think thats what they are called , small box two screws to join wire) then cover in elecrical tape . Or would I be better to buy some spade / bullet conectors ? Can I just use pliers for the connectors or do I need a special tool ? Cheers Steve

Re: joining wires for Indicator
Go an buy a soldering iron and some shrinK wrap tube - or borrow one. They do come in useful and it's a better job done.

Re: joining wires for Indicator
Done well with a decent crimp tool bullet or spade connectors work fine. Protecting them from the weather is a good idea though. The front loom of my bike is pretty much held together with the things.
