Tonearm rewiring

Hi folks,
Learned the hard way yesterday that you must be very - very - careful with the leads heading into your cartridge. As I was trying to unhook a Goldring Elite, I stripped one of the wires out of the clips.
Not good, but I was thinking before that of getting my tonearm rewired. I have a Music Hall MMF 7.3 with a Pro-Ject 9cc tonearm.
This development accelerates my timing.
Who's good out there? Who would you recommend for rewiring? I did a search and some results are older, so I'm looking for some current information.
Appreciate your advice, as I drown my sorrows in a good drink.

@jbny unfortunately I don't know how to solder.

@rauliruegas my plan is to send the 7.3 to Audio Element in Pasadena; they'll be rewiring my TT, and upgrading my cartridge.

Everybody, thanks for your input; appreciate it.

@bdp24 I'm really excited to send the TT to them; I'm looking forward to what they do.
Unfortunately, the cartridge upgrade will have to wait, thanks to the "check engine" light that popped up this week on my car: a couple thousand puts the cartridge into next year; in the meantime, I'll have them reinstall the Goldring, which doesn't even have 200 hrs on it. They'll do a much better job than the online dealer I bought the MMF 7.3 from.
Audio Element will do the full Cardas rewiring of the arm, so I'm really looking forward to the upgrade I'll get.
