Luckily the hardware group at work are all kitted out for this kind of thing and I can do this at lunchtime & after hours.
Yeah, I'm not entirely sure if I'd be able to pull it off, I just have a standard soldering iron with your average size tip. I fix iPhone's in my spare time for extra cash, but there's a little more to soldering tiny led's then there is compared to screwing tiny screws into place and removing small parts lol.
