Hey Guys

We all know how much a pain it is when we have to connect the green connectors. I know some people have done this so just wondering, how have you done a connection to the green connectors with a switch?

Interested in looking at the different solutions that all of you have....

P.S : Anyone knows as well where we can get the green connectors?

Thanks Guys!!

You just plug the green connector in, and on either side cut the wire and put the switch in.

I haven't bothered since I'm getting good at reaching down and plugging it in, but it should be pretty easy.

I have seen the rexes and yes, that can be done. For my forester, its a freaking short wire and i HAVE to remove the cover below to reach it! Thats the reason i want to have a switch

I too am thinking of putting in some switched, but I've got the nack of plugging the greens and the flash plug :shock:

Still if I can find a funky switch I'll do it..Was looking at some switched from these guys..

The green connectors house simple spade connectors. Just get a male and a female spade connector and wiring in a switch is a plug n play affair.

^ Good idea. You can get all of this at Radio Shack for a few bucks.

that's what i did.

then you make up your switch (ie connectors, mounting ,etc) in a much more convenient location, and just plug it in.
