Quoted from CadillacMusic:

How about pop bumper lights? Why in 50 years has no one come up with a better way to light a pop bumper? If the skirt breaks, which they often do, it requires snipping the line, removing the socket, and then later soldering to fix. If you designed them with larger leg "holes", you could have connectors on the end. Parts that can easily break should require basic tools only to fix. At least, that's my operator biased opinion.
Also, that Jurassic Park switch doesn't work in a lot of them because the bracket becomes loose. Jam something underneath it and it'll work again.

I think we have a winner.
