Presoldered split keyboard (self.mechanicalkeyboards)

Hi everyone! I'm planning on getting a split keyboard to replace my planck, but I don't have a soldering iron.

What are my options ? Ideally I want:

DIY, no soldering involved
QMK firmware
40% format

The keyboard I'm leaning toward is the let's split as it's a planck split in two halves, but it seems that you need to at least solder the keycaps yourself, which I can't.

It's not about the cost, it's more about my current situation, storage space, and besides this specific use-case, I have no use for it (and I dont like buying stuff I don't use).

Well, that's fair!
