Wingtime,
That is a nice clean wiring job! I would like to do the same spade connector mod that you did. What size spade connector did you use? It looks like you have 2 10g wires going in to it. Is that correct or did you go with a smaller wire?
Thanks and sorry for the thread hijack...

VK, you use a 10-12 GA female quick disconnect, pare about 1/2 the strands off each 10 GA wire, twist together and crimp...

Thank you.  Yes I used 10 ga wire and did just like Bob said, I trimmed off about a third or so of the strands from each wire, twisted them together, crimped and then heat shrunk them.  I just precut a bunch of the wires and then did a little assembly line deal stripping and crimping them together while watching TV in my living room.
