What you need

Step 1

              Remove the cap from the mount
  • Use your cutter knife to pry open the small cap that hides the inner contacts.
  • You probably have to go a bit deeper into the plastic as the cap is glued to the casing.

Step 3

              Solder the cable to the contacts
  • Use the paper clip to hold the cable at the right position.
  • Solder the prepared cable to the contacts.
  • Remember: the red cable left, the black cable right.
  • The contacts take up heat of the soldering iron really fast. This can lead to the contacts melting the surrounding plastic. Hence, you have to be fast.
