1. A bone anchor connector, comprising:
a body having a proximal-facing surface, a distal-facing surface, a first opening surrounded by the body at the proximal-facing surface, and a second opening laterally offset from the first opening, wherein:
a proximal end of the first opening terminates at the proximal-facing surface of the body;
a distal end of the first opening and a distal end of the second opening terminate at the distal-facing surface of the body;
the first opening includes a first central axis extending therethrough;
the second opening includes a second central axis that extends therethrough at an oblique angle with respect to the first central axis; and
a recessed lead-in surface that extends from the proximal-facing surface of the body towards a proximal-most surface of the second opening around at least a portion of a circumference of the second opening.
