Question:

Im looking at your rear view safety camera splice kit and have a question. To splice the wires do you have something that will bridge the splice for a shield. The cable has a very thin metallic foil that surrounds the conductors for shielding. Do you suggest soldering the conductors together then putting heat shrink over them?

For the Rear View Safety Splice Kit # RVS-SPK01 I think that is a great idea, soldering them together and protecting them with heat shrink will guarantee they are connected properly while protecting the connection from damage.

To accomplish this, if you do not already have the tools you need, you can use a soldering iron like the Cordless Soldering Iron # PTW2000 and a solder spool like Solder Spool # FL0803490.
