You aretalking about the Hella off road 12v dc lights? Tin the ends of wir with solder. Then use the envirnmental splice/connectors with the built in heat shrink. You can even add a little grease at the connections that will repel water as well. Should work great. Post pics when its done!

Yea....Pix's would help.



Of you need more insulation from the elements, then add a piece of shrink tubing w/ glue over top the crimp/shrink connector.



But pix's will help much more to give you direction.

I agree with X-Shark. The corrosion can only enter the wires through the ends if you do the extra shrink wrap with the glue method it should def. seal from the elements!! I use the undewater lights and have had no issue with envirnmental splices/ grease.

Use Marine Grade wiring followed with Liquid tape on the ends 2 thin coats should do it!
