How to do a Basic Wire Splice
Great tip about the liquid tape; I'll use that in my future wire splice projects. I have a Weller butane soldering tool; it heats up fast and is easy to handle since there is no cord or need for electricity. It is kind of pricy at $30 but once you use one of these you won't go back to a corded unit if you're working under the dash or an enclosed space. It is also good for shrinking the heat shrink.
