Brief Description:    Wire headset harness to jacks
As previously noted, the harness that came with the radio had headset wires that were far too short to reach to the back seat area where mine are. So I had to splice the harness into the wires I had previously connected to my jacks.

I butt-spliced each connection, holding them in place with solder, and then putting heat shrink on each connector. Then another heat shrink to capter all the wires.

I tried butt splicing with crimp connectors, but these are 22AWG wires, and the crimp connectors often did not hold the wires, even when I clamped down hard with pliers after crimping (you're not supposed to use pliers on crimps, but the crimpers weren't doing it, so I tried the pliers).
