Is this what you're looking for? These work for most switches.

Re: wire conector source/name

I went out and looked at one of mine and that is what is normally called a bullet connector. Sometimes referred to as a Ford connector too.

They used to sell them in one of those "Help" type packages at the parts houses but I haven't looked for any for a long time.

You can use those and slip some shrink tubing over them for a finished look.

That would be the simple way. or without shrink tubing.
