Quoted from Ratiganpin:

I totally see your point there. The first few mods I bought were Croc clip and they stay permanently on. The first few worked fine, then i had one that just wouldnt work, so the supplier incorperated it into another mod via molex. I bought some more that were interactive with game play, and they were all molex, which I much prefer. This one I'm having trouble with now is also interactive, so I thought it would also be a molex, but alas, dratted Croc clips again! And aparrantly this one can't be changed to molex.

You don't need to change them to molex. Cut the gator clips off and solder the ends to an appropriate connection. ( G.i. bulb tab, etc.)

Quoted from Ratiganpin:

But if the mod won't work at all with the Croc clips, am I correct in thinking it still won't work if I try soldering it to the tabs?

Well, yes. Soldering is only making a better connection, but it would be the same connection.

Quoted from j_m_:

what exactly do you mean?
a 3-pin z-connector?
or a length of 2-conductor wire with 3 z-connectors in-line (2 male and 1 female) or (2 female and 1 male) z-connectors? (eg. one on each end and another in the middle to patch into it?

Pretty sure Pinball life has 3 pin z connectors
