I just snapped one of the connectors off of a new repo Sparton horn, trying to slip the bullet connector on the wire underneath. I tried filing the bullet connector down some, guess I needed to file some more!!

Question. Anyone ever re-engineer this? I'm thinking of soldering something on the horn terminal for an easier disconnect. Thanks.

You do know the bullet connectors are installed face in under the bent round edge of the clip. They do not go in under the cut side of the bronze. Replacement clips are about $6.

If you want to go rogue and try something else, try large Fahnestock clips.
