how'd you install the inspire switch?

i need help from people who installed the inspire switch with PIAA fogs. i got the wiring diagram. this is the question:
the switch has 5 prongs sticking out in the back. how did you guys hook up the PIAA wiring to these prongs? did you use a female connector or just soder them? if you sodered them, isn't there the risk of wires touching and short circuiting?
thanks.

I found some really small clips that fit the prongs at Radio shack. The only thing is they didnt fit right and the had a hard plastic around them which i had to cut off to make them fit. Im not sure what other people did. I think im going to re-do it and solder them.
Whatever you do, be VERY CAREFUL with the prongs on the switch, they bend easily!

thanks NBP, thats exactly what i tried to do. the clips wouldn't fit so i shaved off the plastic edges. it still didn't work out right. i'm trying to get a 5-prong female connector from a junkyard. i dont know if the Accords would have one or not. anybody else tried something different?
and you're right about bending them sonofa*****es! they're quite delicate.
