so, how about you just share signal and ground, but pull power off of one of the free motor ports.

Yes that should work if you want to modify some pwm cables. Without knowing exactly how the motor ports are output. I'd check with Ricky Torrence at vexlabs just to make sure.

you've got signal next to the labels, (white wire), 7.6v in the middle, (orange wire), and ground out at the edge, (black wire). use jameco 157382CK 3 pin housing with 157382CK female pins and 145357CK male pins. the housings aren't polarized, but the worst you can do is swap signal and ground.
