MKIII warning lights

RGM sells a LED as a warning light replacement, has anybody found any 3mm spade connectors for this LED? Alternative I can see is solder on wires?

Don't know the details of the RGM lamps but this is the type of terminal I use for 6mm and 3mm flat 'spade' connections (Lucar as they used to be known):

Try the local car/auto shop, they usually are sold for speaker connections. Beware, they will most likely be your favorite 'red' or 'blue' style crimp!

Or Auto electrical supplies has them as uninsulated ones and the matching sleeves   2.8mm female blade No 030201 £1.78 per pack of 25

Thanks but none of these are in fact 3mm wide spades. 2,8 being too small (I have them). Looks like a solder job.

I've been able to use the 2.8mm, with a bit of a heavy hand, on 3mm relay terminals.

But how about this:

Farnell are good for industrial connectors and suprisingly easy to deal with for small quantities.
