The word you are looking for is WIRE or CABLE. A wire usually means there is only one, and cable can mean many wires together. Sometimes when there are wires attached to a device, they can also be called LEADS. The light you have proabably runs on 12V. This would only need the yellow wire and one of the black wires. Both black wires are the same.



As far as your English, much respect for learning another language. I can appreciate how hard it can be.

... and i cut the wire and i thought to do it this way ...

Some words in the English language do not get 'ed' put onto the end.

Welcome to the forums.

I think the plugs on PSUs are female:

You could buy male pins from online stores. Or you could make your own: link (http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=403156). There are many pictures, so it should be easy to understand. You could attach the pins to the neon wires. :)

Looks good, especially for free. :)

I hope you put electrical tape or heatshrink over the exposed wires and pins! Don't want it to touch your case and short out something!
