Got some male shell connectors today, with the little gold terminals and i have to crimp wires into them. Anyone know how this is done? What I did was clipped each wire down to "size" (millimeters basically) then fit the three terminals into the shell, then fit each piece of wire into each terminal. The wires are cut so small that they really wont stay in, do I tape them in? btw, these are 9004 (9007) connections.

You need the proper crimp tool to attach the wires to the terminals. If you don't have one and don't know where to get one (probably not something you can get at Radio Shack), the other option is to solder the wires into the terminals. You can't just stick the wires in and tape them.
