I know its kinda hard if you have NOT done this before. If you had seen someone doing it or someone guiding you, it would be like 'kacang' only...

i use the cheap ass solder....
ive never seen a solder as a connection...to me a connection should be the wire touching the plug... the solder is used to keep it that way so the thing doesnt move around |
