Wiring without a Filterette

I started wiring the tub, and it appears that it never had a filterette, how is it wired without it?

Exactly the same as if there was one there, but you connect the wires directly to each other instead of through the box; I bolt them together and use heat shrink tubing on the connection. I have also made fake filterette boxes (even the data plates are being made), but still connect the wires together directly. Somewhere on the net there are dimensions for them; I had it but now don't know where it is.
