DIY MC-4 Connectors- 2nd Photo Added
I suppose everyone knows about these except me until today, but in case anybody does not, here it is. There is a Male and Female version, so you need one of each to join your wires to the panel ...

The ones in the link, when assembled, cannot be undone. (so the guy explained---I have not done one yet.) No second chances if you get the sexes wrong with the metal pins and the outside parts. Too easy to mix up the metal pins which will fit either, but only work with one. It is the metal pin that fits into the other metal pin inside the housing (also sexed)
If you have some MC-4s with some wire sticking out, AFAIK it is the same thing. All you can do is use the wire to attach it all to another wire. (wire nut and tape?)
I knew about wires with MC-4s already on them, useless to me. I have seen on here about cutting the wire in half, but wrong lengths for my use. These DIY ones solve all that.
These DIY things are a "game-changer" for me.
