So, you didn't get that extra cord with the connector with your JLF? I remember getting such a cable with my first Seimitsu LS-32-01 sticks. This quick connect is very hand when connecting sticks, especially the ground, as you just need 1 gnd connection.

Take your stick apart and look at the solder lines on the PCB, and you will be able to tell which one is gnd, and which are for directions. Write this down on a piece of paper and take note of which way the little connector is pointing and it'll be quite easy to solder/wire it up.

Hope this helps you.
