Would you ever consider doing this for other members (at a fee of course)?

My dad's a EE PhD, but no way in hell would he support this.

I thought it looked something like a 74.

The soldering is difficult, but if you have patience you'll get through to it.

I would, but I'd have that feeling in my head if i break something..This is my own car, so if i break something i won't feel as bad. If i get pro at soldering i'll think about it. The areas that don't need to solder, i'll gladly do that though.
