Oh come on Grey, keep the cruiser in the condition you received it in and just use Scotchlocks I have seen them used even by Auto Electricians for Driving lights and even trailer connections Kidding of course, about using them I mean. I have seen them used by Auto Sparks though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
You can remove the connectors from the bulb plug and join the wires with a new connector. Use a fine wire/blade/metal strip from a window wiper blade and poke it in from the bulb side of the plug above the connector's flat edge to push down the locking tab. Or YouTube it.
