I've read alot about the three wire and two wire headlight motors, but what I can find is the answer to what to do with that third wire when connecting it to a two wire connector. The Green and Gray wires are understood, but what do you do with that third Blue wire.

One post said to connect it to the other hot wire. Anyone out there connected a three wire headlight motor to a new two wire connector?

And yes I know the two wire motors are superior, however, I have a few (3) wire headlight motors laying around, so why spend $50+ for a two wire motor.

Thanks,

Because you have to. The 2-wire motor uses a completely different wiring and associated components to make it function. You can't just re-wire an older 3-wire motor and make it work with the 2-wire circuit and components.
