Best device to join wires installing oven broiler igniter

Replacing DCS broiler igniter. Have the correct part. Will need to join the wires - OEM igniter came with a quick disconnect friction tab type of connector (don't know the correct terminology), a female end on one wire and male end on the other. I suppose I could just crimp those connectors to the bared wire coming from the oven end (provided I can find the right size locally), or cut the ones on the new part and join the wire with some kind of (I assume heat resistant) connector? Specific type recommendation would be helpful, thanks for the advice. There is an installation plate, and it looks like the wire will be pushed back through an apeture out of the oven.
I'm an amateur - have changed the oven burner igniter before, but wires were much more accessible and both ends had the aforementoned little tabs which made it easier. Igniter looks nearly identical except that the one for the broiler is larger. Not sure how much traffic on this board, will also post on OT (no telling what'll come back over there).

Find a local appliance parts supplier and see if they can guide you.
