If you order from http://www.reptilebasics.com/flexwatt-heat-tape, they can prewire your flexwatt for you as long as you order all the required parts and leave them instructions in the final order notice. They don't solder, but they do use the metal clips w/ a plastic insulator to attach wires to the flexwatt. They do a good job and are pretty cheap.

And once the order arrives, all you have to do is tape down the flexwatt to the shelf since it's already ready to go.
