Joe,

I have done many of them, and while soldering "down in the hole" to the
connector pin is a bit of a challenge, I have not found a better way.  
Do not try to put the wire through the hole in the lug, it is adequate
to dress it along the side of the lug (make sure it is touching) and
solder with a slender tip.
