Pickup quick connects

OK so I have a project that I'm trying to finish. It uses V-T-3 way wiring. I don't have a lot of time to work on this (OK, it's because I'm lazy :rolleyes:), so I looked online to see if anyone makes pre-wired harnesses like that. I found this, purportedly out of a Gibson M2). It has these weird connectors I've never seen before:

So how do I go about attatching a pair of 2--wire pups to these? Or, do I just cut them off? Does someone sell the other ends, that I can attatch to my pups? Thank you!

Looks like molex plugs that they use to attach cables to pcb's

Re: Pickup quick connects

It's hard to say from the photos because there are many different sizes of connectors, but it looks like the male molex "sockets" that they use on some of the Gibson PCB's. Those guitars have the female connectors on the pickups and wiring. I messed with connectorizing different pickups to do quick swaps in my Tribute LP. I have the female molex connectors and an appropriate crimp tool. I also have bad eyes. I connectorized several for quick swaps but eventually sais to hell with it. I can solder in a new set of pups faster than I could get them connectorized so I tore the board out, sold it on ebay and just wired the traditional way. Personally, I would just cut them off and wire up to old fashioned way.
