Yeah, soldering isn't for everyone. I avoid soldering whenever possible. I only use it currently on the wires for my head unit's harness. I used to like to splice wires with the twist and tape method or crimp connectors, before my friend showed me how to really solder. I still run a distro block for my 0 ga to 2-4 ga's. I use the distro mainly for looks though. It's a lot better looking install to have a distro block under acrylic than it is to have a taped up solder. Plus, soldering is a bit more painful to remove for non-permanent installs.
