Default crimping??

I am in the process of making a wiring conversion harness. I have new crimp pins and plugs. The only problem i am running across is that i dont know how to crimp the pins to the wire. The pins are shaped like |__| where the wire goes in and i dont believe that a standard crimping tool will do the job.... Anybody that can give me some ideas as what to use??

i never trust crimping. soldering would be best if you're capable.

i think i'm going to do a combination of both.. just use some pliers to crimp and then a dab of solder to make sure it holds..

If your using the OEM honda crimp style pins, you can order the Honda tool. I think I had to pay like $100 though
