Tied the two together with some 18 gauge wire (I think) and the other end to a flat connector and stuck it in the plug. cover everything with electrical tape or plastic covers.


Alright so I'm doing this today and I don't want to cut the wires. Are the little white prongs where the cable is in the connector where I need to insert a flat head to get them out? It looks like or do I need to take off a section of the white connector to get to where I can release the two wires?

All done! The hardest part was getting the wires out of the main connector!

My bad, saw your posts late. Yeah, that was the hardest part. But worth it if you don't want to cut wires.
