Re: new carts!!!

I don't own those cartridges, so I can't help you with #2. But in regards to #1,

1. the connections on the back of the cart are smaller than the previous ones, so the wires are very loose. what is the best way to correct this. (well obviously i could pinch the wires, but i could easily "over pinch" them, and crush the openings. im tryin to be delicate with my new toys)

I know this may be difficult, but after putting on the wires, take one of those very thin electrical tightener-wrench-thingies (don't know the term lol - they're used for bending small wires), and squeeze while the sleeves are on the connectors.

Not sure if this is feasible, but it's worth a shot.
