[TR] Wire terminations

[Rye Livingston]

If you can, solder everything.  Much better than crimping.

And for wire to wire connections, which I have as I patch my old mess of wires on my TR3, I got these connecters and heat them up with a heat gun.  Works well and easy to use in tight places.

For my utility trailer I even doubled up when installing new wiring and new LED lights.  I used these connectors which are water proof, and I also used shrink tubing too.

Hey all ~

Hope everyone enjoyed their holidays and were able to 
spend some quality time with loved ones....

I've got a new wire harness for my TR3 in hand and was 
wondering your thoughts for those wires not using bullet 
connectors, (I'll likely use the bullet crimping tool from 
British Wire for that). So, for wires requiring spades, rings, 
etc. do you suggest soldering these terminals or is crimping 
a better choice? If crimping, what tool have others found to 
be reliable?

Thanks !!
