How would you do this with the Talon SRXs that just have bare wires on the can bus? When connecting Talon to Talon teams are going to need some connector to go between them and to be able to replace them quickly. When going into the PCM, RoboRIO, and PDP we wouldn't need connectors but with the talons I think they are needed.
