I crimped mine in with a pair of pliers, it's been fine for 2 years plus:)

I think any method will work just as good, there isn't actually that much force on the cable really.

I filled mine with solder, then used the tip of the iron to heat the outside of the tab and melt the solder then just pushed the cable in an held it till solder had cooled.

Tryed to crimp it no joy, then decided to heat with blow torch then drop a bit of solder in but I figured out that the clip needs melting with the cable in no solder required, but messed the clip up finding this out! So buy a whole kit just for this end peice, cheers guys
