MAME nut:

After going thru old threads, I'm attempting to splice into the two wires on my computer's power button....and run a remote switch to the outside of my cabinet.

ras2a:

I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing you are after ?

I noticed that ras2a is linking a site in the UK...

They are called many things like wire splices or scotch locks (brand name) and you should be able to find them at home depot.
