Hi Bob-

  

 This stuff comes in pretty handy:

 Scroll down to "Servo wire".  Five 22ga for MAC trim and two 20ga for tail light/whatever (and just whut the doktur ordered for TruTrak servos).  Take them wimpy wires from the MAC servo, strip back twice what you need for a butt splice, double it over and crimp.  I also add a short skinny piece of heat shrink to the insulation to make sure the PIDG butt splice grabs aholt of the insulation...

  

 Here's a suggestion from Bob Nuckolls at aeroelectric.com:

 and others have crimped d-sub pins with shrink tube over each connection (female to harness, male to servo at staggered lengths to avoid "snake swallowed a pig" syndrome) to the wires to make the connection as well.
