Help needed for fitting indicators

[badapple]

Just fitted new indicators to my bike, but I need to know what I need to connect the wires?

The new indicators have these connectors as in first pic.



I need to connect them to the spade sort of connector second up in the left corner in the second pic.



I am a utter moron with this kind of stuff, so any advice appreciated.

a hammer, then a good bit of solder?

thats just my answer for pretty much anything electrical, but it might actually be appropriate here.

cue slating from all PH sparkys.

Mike I need to connect these

Those connectors are called "bullet" conectors and are male ones all you need is female bullet conectors of the same size for the wires you wish to conect to.

Alternetivly you could cut them off and crimp on the spade conector

very very easy

The one on the left is a bullet conctor the one on the right is a female spade conector.

I would cut off the bullet conector strip the wire back a little bit then crimp on a male spade of teh same size easy

Yep, Pesty's right either change the one bullet so you have male and female bulletts or change the one spade so you have male and female spades.
And by the way you could do with a manicure

damn, he's right. you won't need a hammer.

but you might want a bit of solder after you've pinched them tight with pliers. 50% appropriate advice from mikeylad. a record!

Definitely change the bullets off the new indicators,
then if you ever need to change back to originals you won't have to frat around with connectors again,nice and simple!
Best of luck
