We are rewiring a trailer rear bumper
and we need to join wires
problem with LED lights each one needs a earth wire
I can remember Fruehauf trailers have wire joiners that were
a tapered insulated tightly wound spring
guessing about 30mm (1.1/4)Long x 20mm (3/4 Diameter)
the idea being you bared back the plastic on the wire ends and twist all the wires together to a point
then twisted them into the spring joiner
I need to kno the name of these dodadds and availability
Thanx in Advance

Try "twist on wire connector".
Not quite sure if that is what you are looking for?

Swishy, the ones with the screws are BP connectors, short for blue point connectors, do a search and the screw on ones will probably come up, I am not a fan of either, I would use in line crimps or solder and heat shrink, unless of course you expect to be changing out smashed lights every other day, then I would use the ones with the screw.

I know the ones you mean Swishy, they used to come in the crimp grab kits. Jaycar can probably help you. I reckon they're pretty dodgy, you could use eye or U crimp terminals and attach them to the lamp securing bolts.
