Default Help! Fxr on/off switch wires

So I attempted to remove the on/off switches from my fxr's. The first one went fine, while I was trying to do the second one and I had a little pressure on the wires coming out of the circuit board, got em a little too hot and out they came... So now I have no wires connected to the board and two empty little holes.
Thinking I might be able to get a small glob of solder over the two holes?

Am I screwed?

Any advice would be very much appreciated

You can either get a solder bridge across the 2 holes, or (better) would be to drop a small piece of wire into the holes and solder it in. You could cut a length of the wire from the switch to use.
