Anyone know someone or a Place that will solder my Headshell wires for my Turntable ?

    Hi folks,
    Had a bit of a disaster replacing my turntable cartridge last night when removing the connectors from my previous cart. Then Green cable just literally fell out :(
    It needs to be soldered back to the little connecter.

    Anyone know where I can get this fixed in Ireland ? Ideally in Galway ?
    Thanks in advance.

    There's a Maplin store in Galway that should have a new set of these for a couple of euro.

    Thanks ZENER but the issue I have is that my Project Headshell has these wires running through the tonearm and the headshell itself can't be removed :( Soldering is the only option for me right now without pulling the whole tone arm assembly off (I think).
    The wires are very delicate too so I've never soldered previously so am weary of making it worse.

    Well I headed to maplins and picked up a soldering kit and gave it a go :D It worked lol Not as hard as I expected at all. Mind you the screwing of the cart to the headshell was a nightmare with my chunky fingers.
