How do I Connect lights to the Customer Accessory Circuit?
I purchased a Bright Rider from Lamonster and watched the video many times. I need help on how to connect the Bright Rider to my Customer Accessory Circuit. In the video the lever connector is already on. The kit shipped with the lever connectors and round screw connectors. Based on the video I will need to cut off the end of the Bright Rider which terminates with a small pinned plug. How do I remove the plastic sleeve tubes from the Accessory Circuit and the connect the lever plug. Since this is electrical I do not want to fry anything. Sorry to ask such a basic question (for many) but I want to be careful and learn. I included photos of the connectors sent and my Accessory Circuit. Thanks in advance for any help or tips. I did send an e-mail to LaMonster and did not hear back.
Regards,
Jim

Reason: Prefix: This is a 'How do I?' not a 'How to:' DIY example.....
Jim I had the same problem that you are having. I couldn’t figure out how to use the lever connectors and my Bright Rider did not come with any posi-tap screw connectors.( the red ones). Luckily I had some posi-taps and connected to the accessory circuit with them. As I recall the black wire is positive and the white wire is negative on the accessory circuit. Just trim back some of the plastic on the accessory circuit leads and use the posi-tap connectors.

The one image with the battery looks like crimp butt connectors where you stick a same gauge wire in and use a special tool to squeeze down on the metal part. It's also possible they pull off as they are just protecting the bare wires.
The other image shows Post-Tap butt connectors. Black is always ground and Lamont talks about a purple wire for positive. Basically make connections and make sure the wires don't touch each other or any part of the frame.

My light is working - I want to thank JKMSPYDER for the advice. I am really excited about my light.
Thanks!
