i've found a load-side sae cable. the wire gauge is way too thick for
   the motor current but it will work. I also found fancy-shmancy wire
   strippers. i'm thinking i'll connect it with wire screws to start, or
   event just tape the wires together. I also have a soldering iron here.
   i'll put the items near the motor to help me find them, and either
   lengthen the exposed copper or look for wire screws.
   wire screws are presently usually in my "electric parts" box, which
   might be in the truck right now I think. but I have some kicking around
   here.
   a wire screw is a small bit of metal spring and plastic housing that
   screws over two wire ends to connect them in a temporary manner.
