Any of these work but...
I frown on solid wire used on moving devices. The vibration can cause them to fail and you know what Murphy says about this...It will happen during the last match of the finals. Extensions are the easiest followed by soldering and insulating followed by buying the right stuff and making them yourself. If you are planning on coming back next year, get the pins and wire and a nice crimper from Digikey. It is the best long term solution.
