If there is any mechanical mounting hardware make sure to do that
BEFORE soldering.

If solder then do the hardware, that will put stress on the solder joints.
With time vibrations and temperature cycles will cause the joint to break.
Possibly in ways that are hard to see with the naked eye and may be
intermittent.
