It is not as simple as installing the SER-001 but not much more
difficult than replacing the logic board. There are many places to
screw up but a careful reading of Frank's or PCBmans instructions will
help you avoid them. During disassembly organization and separating
the tiny connectors are my biggest challanges. In re-assembly getting
all the wires back where they belong is challenging.
