Question Pass-thru female spade connectors?

Does anyone know where you can get the pass-thru female spade connectors shown in the U-Tube Video "Off-Road Lighting 101" by NEWEREJK? I have not been able to get a response from him and cannot find them anywhere in our area or the internet.

I've never heard of them. But I only have five decades of experience in electronics, so don't know everything, yet. How about doing us a favor: Post a link to the video (I gave it a minute to search without success--he has a lot of videos--and figured you could do this small favor since it's your question). Better yet, how about a screen grab and posting the resulting image of one of the suckers here? Help me to learn something new.

Perhaps he's referring to the rear row of connections in this grab from the video.

I've never heard of them either but they look pretty cool. If you can't find them you could do it the more traditional but less neat way as seen here.

Oh and I forgot to mention, they're called flag terminals. Might help you in your search.

Digikey has every connector you will ever need. Search engine on the site isn't very good though.

I used the basic flag style insulated connector and just ran two wires in and chained them together. Works well for me.
