Try to go through the step by step procedure link provided by mADmAN.. any part you do not understand, please give us a shout.
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...
good luck dude.

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 tongue.gif

The Kester 245 IS the Kester 63/37

I got one from a Penang local Store. Costs around Rm25 biggrin.gif (0.8mm, half a kg, flux cored with their super awesome modified rosin flux).

I still have one brand new roll left though, interested?
