bad idea...crimp connectors suck in the first place.having that many together vibrating and moving is bound to work some wires loose no matter how hard you crimp them. its tedious, but solder each one.

Soldering is really pretty simple. If you spend a few bucks on the soldering iron and some solder, practice on a couple of wires first. I guarantee you will pick it up and be able to solder those connections. It's not hard at all, and its kinda fun.
