The wiring for my electrics is a mess. For the rear lights and indicators, it's all bullet connectors and spades of all sizes and colours and I want to tidy it up. Are there any multi plugs available that could be recommended, or any other suggestions. I'm not great with electrical issues.

IMHO the standard bullet connectors are fine when kept clean, and easy to work with. Get yourself a wiring diagram and colour code sheet. Have a look here:

Trailer cable is good for a rewire around the rear ,I use the chock block connectors folding the exposed bit of wire back over the outer for a good firm contact.
Just do not use those scotch block connectors,have seen many problems caused by those horrible things.

Years ago I used trailer cable to rewire the back end of a series 3.
I used a rubberlite (?) Connecter box, made of rubber with beefy brass terminals inside and a clear plastic lid. Quality item but it wasn't cheap and I had no internet then(most didn't) , so it was only what the local factors had.

If it is just for the rear loom they are reasonably priced and make a huge difference, no more earth faults and dog previous owner repairs. If you need a full loom i begins to get expensive however.
