Been trying to finish my 1960 TR3. Bought new front and rear turn lights. The wires seem to go into the bases using bullet type connectors but when I tried that route they stuck out too far and he base would not go into the rubber boot. The connectors sit perpendicular to the base. This seems wrong. I ended up soldering the wires on the first one I did. Not gone any further yet awaiting a better idea?

Thanks, Donnie

They were perpendicular originally as well.

Mine were a snug fit, but I kept the bullet connectors. Had to turn them a bit as I recall and put a sharp bend in the wires. The rubber boot should stretch a bit to fit over, then you'll have to work it back and forth to get through the hole in the body/grill.
