I think I am going to to sodder it on. I mean when is the next time I or who ever owns the car will have to remove it? I'll sodder it in a way where it can be removed with some ease. Good Idea? If I overnight the sender it will cost me like $84 dollars!!! Just for that stupid little terminal!!! Argh, this blows.

Solder will NOT work.
Replacement is the only option AFJuvat

Yeah, I know..... Morbid curiosity I guess.
It just seems so ODD though, how do you break the terminal? Overtightening it is about the only way I can think of. AFJuvat
