RE: [DML] Tail-light circuit boards - soldering ok?



Unless you are reall good at soldering, knowing how hot to be so that you 
don't burn the copper right off the board, you might want to send them to 
John Hervey to fix.
He is pretty cheap compared to buying new ones.
You can get PJ Grady's boards for a little over $100 too.
