thanks--my old soldering iron is terrible, takes forever just to heat up, so i bought a mini one at radioshack, the butane kind....Gotta get some butane then try to fix this baby. Problem is the break is so close to the front that there is like no slack on the wire.... they are like attached to the front part at one point by some type of glue. i may try pushing both wires to the bottom of the chassis and putting a drop of solder there, even if it means that they stick down there.
as for the connector on the body, i just dremeled out the smashed up part, leaving a bit of plastic sticking up so that the clip can grab it. its not perfect but it sticks on the charger so i cant complain
BTW which way does the battery go back in--im assuming its just based on the red and black wires (poistive/negative on the batt) rite?
EDIT:
i was able to drag the short portion of the wire (attaches to front of car) up to the side wall of the ZZ (imagine the board off, it comes right up to the top of the black part where the board sits.) if i solder it there, the board wont fit, but do you think after its soldered i could just deattach the solder from the plastic, or would it get stuck there?
