Thanks Robert. So, am I right in thinking that you insert the small end from the connector side of the rubber grommet and pull it through until the thick part just touches the narrowed place in the grommet? They have it sized to imply that. Are there any assembly documents on the net that lay it out in a straightforward manner? I couldn't find anything related to the plastic pin. Note that this is for future info. I've assembled my connector with 2 wires and given it my blessing. =)
