I tinned the extension wires and CRT leads. Then, butted the wire ends together and briefly touched my solder iron to the joint.
It's a lot easier if you first thread the extension wires through the base pins, then solder them to the CRT leads.
It is faster too. Especially when you are fastening the base back on with 5 minute epoxy: time counts.
