RE: [T3] 6V headlight plugs


There are little sorta pinch connectors, with a spring on the backside of
one of the contacts, so you shove the wire between the two contacts and the
spring keeps pressure on the wire, when you want to remove the wire you just
pull it out.  Its not like say, bullet connectors, though... there isnt that
much force needed... you just slide the wire in. Ill see If I can get a good
picture of it.
