Hello,

I need to use the 0 and 1 digital pins while I have a motor shield on. I will include the link to the shield I plan to buy. Is it possible to solder a wire on top of the 1 and 0 pin (on the shield itself) while having no problems?

I circled the pins I am talking about in an ugly green color

Just from the ebay views pin 1 and 2 look to be not connected on the shield so I would think you could. I assume that these pins aren't used by the shield software?
