What is the best method for soldering a header pin to the LPC points (x2.2 lite)? I have done a bunch of wire installs, but this is the first header pin one i've done.

Is the most efficient method to touch the iron to the pin, heat it....then touch the solder to the pin near the LPC point?

There used to be a video of a header pin installation out on the web, but the link works no more ;(

Anyone else want to chime in with the best method to attach it? The tutorials seem kinda weak when it comes to the header soldering technique....

yeah that method is good. also this one will make it clean as hell:
tin your iron with solder and put flux on the lpc's touch the pin and the solder will flow, it looks beautiful dude, try that...
