@Hazi59 So the Hyper Tough Rosin solder should be fine?
Sadly, I do not have a multimeter, and don’t know if I have access to one without going and blowing dough on one…
Well, the iron I have is the one I pictured above. Yeah, it’s a cheap one, obviously, but I’m also not doing critical board component level work here. On the other hand, I know that wet sponges are OK, but something like this is prefered (from my understanding):

(I know this Hakko exists, but at $20 more? I don’t know…)

Would you say it would be best to buy flux seperately as that precaution if things get screwy and I have to redo a solder point(s)?
Something like this:

I know Luis Rossmann sells the stuff he uses, but I am not sure I wanna spend $30 on something I’m only gonna use a tiny amount of, or wait for however long it will take to get here.
Found this as a guide. Looks good to me, but I’m willing to hear the experienced individuals thoughts
Edit: Considering modding the cable as well by slapping one of these where it was attached to the headphone:
