I am hooking up my SpeedHut Gauges in Bugsy and need some ideas. Each LED in the Gauges have a separate Power and Common Ground Wire. I counted no less that 10 Ground Wires and 6 Power Wires I need to tie together. Soldering iron is ready to go but what can I use to tie together all of the common wires from each gauge. These are itty bitty wires. I thought about a Brass Washer I can strip wires back on, add a layer of solder to begin with on the brass washer, wrap the wires around the brass washer and then add a layer of solder. Use a small bolt to tie the wires from each gauge together and connect to a common ground or common Power Source. Heat Shrink over all to prevent something shorting out.
Either that or a solder type lug, good luck trying to find something that is not insulated, and solder each one together. or a copper/brass washer solder each wire individually to a single washer and then a brass bolt to hold the stack together, Heat Shrink over all. Since gauges need to come out when dash is recovered this Winter I need a way to easily put it together and then take it apart. Thinking caps on gents. Oh and something I don't need to mailorder. Summer is going quickly, need to be back and driving.
