no solder required, you can get the sockets at an autoparts store for like $7 each

AutoZone's Part number is 85881. I believe the covered vehicles listed on the package is incorrect, but it is the right one.

You don't have to solder if you get the right connectors. There are some twist on weatherproof splice connectors you can use, what I got for mine actually. Posi-Seal "Seal It" is what they're called, do a google search to check them out. Pretty cheap little project, minus the cost of the expensive housings if you're doing those too. I got the new sockets at Autozone for like 9 bucks a piece and the splice connectors at Oreilly's. I'll post some pics of them if need be, but I'm sure you can find them on Google.
