Electrical connector for front headlight problem
My 94 EG coupe's front driver side headlight keeps going out every few seconds because the electrical connector is bad. Does anyone here have experience fixing that sort of stuff?

I agree with HondaFanatic708's approach. Slip a 2" piece of electrical shrink tube over the wire after you cut it. After you finish soldering the connection, slip the shrink tube over connection. Use a hair dryer to shrink the shrink tube until it is tight around the connection. If you don't have the tools, one of your friends will. Solder irons are cheap. You can find them at most discount stores.
