had this problem for a bit, and finally came up with a solution. since it was just a screw with an allen wrench head crimping down the wire inside the terminal, when i was driving and I would get on it, or go around a corner really fast, sometimes my power and ground wires would work themselves loose over time.
started looking for a solution in january I finally found the answer.
I went to radio shack and found a couple of UG-175 UHF-Type Reducers

the small end will fit in the holes for the power and ground wires. so on my power and ground wires, I spread the copper wires out and cut half off of each, then I twisted the remaining copper wires together on the ground, took one reducer and fed the wire through the big end of the reducer. since I couldn't crimp the reducer without breaking it, I simply taped it together using electrical tape, and made sure it was good. I did the same with the power wire.
Then I stuck power wire with the reducer small end into the power hole, and the ground wire with the reducer into the ground. I tightened down the allen head screws with my allen wrench and made sure it was good and tight, and everything works perfectly, and they haven't come loose!
think they were about $5 or $6 for a pair at radio shack, and they solved my problem very nicely.
