The wires in my Toyota are much thinner than the wires in any of my
American cars were.

It matters only when I'm trying to splice wires, and I have to be more
careful not to cut the wires while stripping the insulation.



I've only used these once or twice - but no issues :

Oh no! Scotchlock connectors 8( I have replaced them in numerous occasions.
Usually after-market installs of alarms, remote starts, plows, etc. They may
work for awhile (whatever that is) but are unreliable over time with vibration.
Best done with heat shrink and solder or crimping.
