Humbucker coil wire to lead wire connection

Hi All

I have scoured the Internet for any info on the subject. I have seen many pics on how the coild wire connects to the lead wire for single coils, but not one pics on how the same connection is made for humbuckers. The coil tape hides the connection.

What is the most used method for connecting coil wire to your lead wire?
Pics would be great.

BTW, I ask because on a single coil, the bottom bobbin is bigger and it creates room for the eyelets to make the connection, but on a humbucker coil the top and bottom flatwork is the same size. So how and where is the connection made?

The connections are made inside the confines of the bobbin.

Thanks for the reply. Any idea how?
For mine, I made a small loop at the end of the lead wire and then I wrapped the coil wire around it and then soldered together. I then layed this against the bobbin tape, (covering the coil), and then taped over the connection with the lead wire coming out the end side of the bobbin.
I'm curious if this is how others are done or if eyelets might be incorporated.
