No, I don't like wire taps at all. I explained a perfect method a few posts up. I will try to grab some spare wire in my garage and make visuals of what I mean.
When soldered using this same method, if you want to remove it, you can just cut the added wire off real close to the original and tape it up the same, all without cutting the original in any way.I somewhat agree, the point of that splice I mentioned is for people that don't want to "modify" the original wires in a vehicle. The method allows you to completely remove the aftermarket wire and just tape the bare spot. I squeeze the connection with mini flat pliers I have after twisting them together, then it's wrapped with tape that can never unravel. I wouldn't be worried about the connection I made one bit :thumb:
If you do not solder all connections you will have problems in the future. Just a matter of time.

You also need to connect the wait to start lead that goes to the indicator light at the back of the instrument cluster. Alternatively you can program a set delay on most systems.
keep in mind that if you choose to hard wire the WTS wire, you will need to diode isolate it or it will never crank. the wire is orange IIRC behind the cluster along with your tach (white) in the same location.

Are you talking about those blue wire taps? if so there is much better type to use look up Posi tap these work much better and just pierce the wire with a small needle rather then cutting the coating.
