[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8841898, member: 674149"] oookkkkkaaayyy, it's your thread, you should know why you made it. Don't expect that any shop soldered that. It's not required for it to work, it takes more time, and soldering just doesn't work well for 8awg and larger, or 16awg and smaller. Crimping properly with a crimper tool always works well too. What they most likely did, and what you would want to do, is just buy the adapter harness with the connector that plugs into your OEM harness, and then you crimp new pins on or depin how it comes and move em around. The adapter harness is $5-$10, and if you are getting a bunch of these to test, then go buy a couple (to have at least one extra on hand for a few bucks), a pick set, and a crimper kit. About $50 for that list, and you can crimp any pins on for any new head units, and you can depin and move around anything you need to. I wouldn't bother with soldering for that, especially if you don't have solder stuff yet. [/QUOTE]
