I then took pliers to the pin and yanked it out then soldered the wire back together. But yea, Metra's are cheap to begin with so I'd just order that and call it a day.
The Metra I got for PandaSpur was $4 and some change shipped. Really doesn't make sense to not get the better quality harness in my opinion.
