Does one need to solder the wires into the spade connectors when wiring dynamo lights up? Or does crimping do the trick?

A good crimp with a proper tool is better than soldering as solder can make the wire brittle where solder wicks up the wire and cause it to break. If it's a dodgy crimp solder might help though.

Where “a proper tool” is always one grade above what you’ve forked out for.

Weeeeeell, actually, I do have some rather nice aerospace-spec crimping tools. But I did build the wiring harness for my race car, including a 12 channel datalogger, from scratch.
