anyway soldering can be bad due to very thin wire can break due to vibrations over time
right at end of solder in a car its not so bad
in a plane well u can end uo with 300 deaths and thats no good heheh

Thanks Sideshow. I did solder on my box trailer lights when I built it - nothing as critical as a plane!
