Tail light components.jpg

It’s unfortunate that FFR hasn’t updated the manual with a photo like the one above showing the new tail light connector components. They do note that the grey socket isn’t used, and show the female connector assembled and connected to the socket, but one more picture would give us a clue on how they go together.

I agree with Jim that crimping with the right tool gives you the best electrical and mechanical connection, but finding the right one can be a challenge, unless some kind soul gives us a link to it, like Jim did, and the manual should have.

I think your solution will work fine as long as the tape holds. If you come across the connector housing or can get one from FFR, your wires should plug into it. BTW, I’ve soldered all my crimps so far, and probably will on these as well, as it takes a lot of new tool for 6 crimps.

Thanks for sharing so much of your work. There are so many great ideas in your thread.
