The method may include bending an end portion of a first wing and/or an end portion of a second wing that may provide a first bent portion and a second bent portion. The method may include crimping the first bent portion and the second bent portion onto a wire. The terminal may be in a first position during bending and/or the terminal may be rotated to a second position after bending. The terminal may be in the second position during crimping. The first position and the second position may be substantially perpendicular.
