Review on Enhance Automotive Connections with Absolute USA SPL1614B Scotch Lock Quick Slide Auto-TAP Connectors by Russell Roberson

socket and plastic housing so I see no need to buy more expensive ones. I haven't tested the connection with a tester yet, but the connection looks solid. It's possible to fill the cavity with silicone grease, which could probably weatherproof it, like those button-type wire connectors. Squeezing with needle nose pliers requires some force. It is designed to be squeezed with regular or slip-joint pliers, which offer more mechanical advantages. The cap is only meant to be pushed down and prevent the metal connector from shorting to other metals. It's not for squeezing a metal fork.
