You should just be able to splice them using wire connectors!

yep. this man speaks the truth, and the best way to do it. there are a ton of wires, and i think you would spend a lot more time splicing, let alone it would be hard and time consuming to solder that many wires.

you can take the switch plate off of your lock/window switch. the backing plate with all of the connections is left. tape it up with duct tape, etc to protect it, and fish it out the hole where the articulated rubber is in the door hinge area. it is a real tight fit, but can be done.

make sure you put tape on the edges of your door and fender when you R/R, so that you dont crunch paint.

good luck.
