Hi,

I have repaired several bullet connectors - provided you use a soldering
iron with sufficient power - not the one used on radio etc. electronics.
30 Watts power is best.


Cheers,

Hans

Neil,
That's what I do when I need to join a couple of wires....solder.
Get to a Radio Shack and get some "heat shrink" tubing just larger than the 
wire size you're looking to join; put it over the wire prior to soldering; 
clean the wires of all grease and contaminants; solder these wires together 
then slide the shrink tubing over the joint and hold a match under it until 
it creates a tight seal.
I've had some pretty good luck with repairing "professionally" repaired
crimp 
fitting with Lucas "bullet" connectors.
Good luck
