Now strip all the wires and sand all 4 wires the 2 gold wires not coated need twisting together and solder on to one side or the mic (preferably ground) ill explain in pictures

Go Solder

Yep Go ahead and get the soldering iron warming up its time to attach some wires

First solder the 2 gold wires to the mic these both go to the same side (negative) if you preferred to you could solder them to the side of the mic then solder the two coloured wires to the positive side


(the positive side is the side with no little wires coming off going to the side of the mic)
(the negative side is the side with normally 3 wires coming off to the side of the mic)

Making It Look Good

if you have any use some heat shrink over the mic (leaving the end clear so it can be heard clearly)

then if you want spray paint it all but tape up the metal contacts on the plug so they don't get sprayed
