Step 4Solder
Thread the wires through the access holes and hot glue the switch assembly to the top case of the remote. You may need to break away some plastic bracing inside the remote top case to make room for the wires. Test fit it first, routing the wires away from any screw holes to make sure everything lays flat when assembled.
Strip and solder the wires to the PWB. I won't go into how to solder but here are a few sites that do:

A soldering tip that I find very useful is to "tin" the parts prior to soldering together.
After soldering, use a hot glue gun to deposit small globs of glue to the wires on the PWB. This will help hold the wires to the PWB so that they won't accidentally rip off during assembly.
