I'm rewiring the power window switches in my '85 C10. What kind of solder should I use, and do i need to use flux?

Radioshack should have some.
Get the type of solder with flux in it.
Remember, get the component hot and the solder flow towards the heat.

Rosin core solder. Thinner stuff flows easier. Tinning the tip of the iron helps too.
