: I was thinking of just snipping and stripping one of the yellow/black pairs and then using the twisty wire connectors to connect it to a long pair of wires running to the lamps. Does anyone see a problem with doing this. Oh, and I'm *assuming* that it doesn't matter which prong on the lamp I use for the hot lead (the yellow wire) and which one I use for the ground (the black wire). Please correct me if I'm wrong!
That's just about exactly what I did, except I soldered and used some heat shrink tubing. Lightbulbs are not polarized so it doesn't matter which terminal you hook to what. The lights seem slightly dimmer than normal (since they are rated at 14v) but it still looks really, really nice.
