Way to go!  Not trying to be creepy but I always remember reading through the comments and seeing your truck as your picture on youtube.

Whoa, whos that handsome guy? haha, this was actually an "audition" video, I did a pretty poor job with camera work and correctly installing the new socket. Stage fright? I re did the work with heat shrink and swapped the high/low wires around. I think it still gives a good enough explanation on how to do it yourself, though.

Nice job, I use shrink tubing as much as I can. Electrical tape can come undone and allows moisture to enter.

Also flux will help draw the solder into the wires at a lower temperature and create a better connection.

I have always been taught that the solder is not supposed to make the connection. Get a good connection by twisting the (clean) wires together good, then solder it to keep it from coming undone.

X2 on both of these comments, trying to solder without flux is a lot more difficult.
