Default S-Pod questions

My jeep came with an s pod already installed. I'm hooking up some lights today but found out I don't have the spade terminals that came with it to hook up the wiring. Does anyone know what size spade terminals I need to go get I can't find info on it anywhere....

I ended up with some that were a bit too wide, and used my bench grinder to make them fit. As you may have noticed, their narrow size isn't usual fair for hardware stores.

Yeah I'm having a hard time I was thinking about just trying the circle terminals I've found some smaller ones that size.

They are 14-16 gauge, just went out to the garage and checked the ones from my SPOD bag that are not being used at the moment.

Thanks guys. Got my lights wired last night. Gotta get my winch on today. But you can't wire anything from the winch to the spod right?

Correct, the Winch goes directly to the battery and all controls are internal on the winch. If you want control of the Winch from inside take a look at 12voltguy.com he has some interesting stuff

I did this exact kit, which allows you to control the power of the winch from your SPOD.
