Default Anyone a soldering pro?
Wondering if you can help me in my quest to change my radio light bulbs, because they are all out. I can physically give you the radio out of my car. It's no biggie. However, if you can do it inside of my car, that'd be fine. I have all of the bulbs.

I am in Orlando in case anybody doesn't know.

I don't have a portable setup for something like that. I'd want to do it in the clean room.
