[QUOTE="ttocs, post: 1589809, member: 11896"] wire nuts are a big no-no for car use. Inside of that cap is a spring that tightens down on the wires and inside of a house where there is no vibrations and it stays about the same temp they are great. In a car that spring will go through some hot/cold cycles that along with some vibrations will pop out of the cap and leave the connection exposed to short out. I know I have seen some manf that include them with what ever they sell but trust me you don't want to use those or t-taps which I have also seen manf include with some products. [/QUOTE]
