Default Evo R Rear Fog Light

I have the Evo R Rear fog light and it works flashes when I push the brakes and is light up when the lights are on. I have an issue recently it seems that the fog light no longer flashes when I press the break. It seems to be that the wire splicer keeps getting loose. I have tried replacing the splicer but I think that the wire gauge is just to thin.

Any other ways to keep wire connected without getting loose. How did you owners of the Evo R connect the fog light.

Is there enough slack in the wire to solder it? You'd never have to worry about it again.

Yeah there is slack, I thought about that and I think that will be my only choice. But I want it to be last resort.

Mine's the Z1 fog light and kit, and I had an issue with the wire tap jiggling loose. I fixed it once by tightening it down more, but if I ever have to deal with it again I'm soldering it in.
