I'd like to make an input for my blaupunkt deck. I found these connectors but am not really clear on how to solder them. From this pick, it looks like the cup side is already filled with solder or is super shallow. Anyone have experience with these?

To make matters worse. The plugs that I have (purchased from vetco, same as this pic) actually don't appear to have the shallow cups. In the store (without my glasses) it looked like they were just pins with no accommodation for soldering. Are they likely just filled to the brim w/ solder?

YouTube is usually the DIY best friend, but surprisingly it doesn't seem to have anything about soldering these up. Anyone here more experienced with these?

thanks

Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for. Nothing ever suggested the cups were pre-filled, I was just trying to find some way to make sense of it.

I didn't realize you could solder the tip of the wire to the pin. Just seems to me like it would easily disconnect. But now that I know to try searching for "pin" found some good YouTube's, like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IkjMK26ROcM

No pics of the specific connector I've been talking about because I didn't buy it yet because I didn't understand how to use it!

Thanks guys. I love this site!
