what kind of solder?

Just your standard solder with flux? What I meant was solder new wires in the middle to lengthen the cable. I done the opposite to shorten mine where I needed to.

Cut the wires, solder a piece in the middle to increase the length to where you need it. Sleeve it and done. Or cut it somewhere behind the panel where it wont be seen.
