No this was at home right in front of the garage haha, but there was a bunch of stuff in the open spot so I had to take on the storm!

What is this soldering? I thought the kit was a 'plug and play' deal?

I was just going to ask the same question.

He included some press on wire connectors(the little blue things) so you don't have to solder if you don't want to. Soldering just makes it look a touch cleaner and more "factory".

Soldering or using those POS wire connectors is not plug and play

This ^. Im studying electrical/mechanical engineering and I love to solder whenever I get the chance.

You most certainly dont need to solder anything, I just did out of personal preference. Also those blue splice connectors work very well. And yes, the kit is plug and play, sure you have to unscrew 4 screws to take out your parking light, and clip 2 wires together, but is that really such an inconvenience for such a positive result?
This kit is well worth the money.

There's nothing wrong with those blue wire splicers, I use them all the time if I need to.

As have I. I have 3 trailers right now and all the lights have the blue press on connectors. There is absolutely nothing wrong with them, I just didn't want to dignify his demeaning post by retaliating. Kind of irritating when a super noob tries to foul up someone's thread.
