Parts
First, you're gonna need some parts. I got some T-molding at the same time, to brighten up the cabinet a bit. A great visual investment for only about $10.Parts
Tools
You only need a few tools. Phillips screwdriver, soldering iron, desoldering iron (highly recommended over the old wick or click-pump thing), and a solder spit-bucket for the desoldering iron. A desoldering iron is only about $10 at Radio Shack, which means it's probably even cheaper somewhere else.Before you begin, lay out the parts and double check that you have all the proper pieces. Very important.Tools

Step one: Remove monitor. Disconnect: Sound leads (2) Video signal connector Power plug Ground strap Don't forget to discharge the damn thing. After you get past the bezel, it's only 4 screws and some cardboard holding it in. Now yank that sucker out and take it back to your work bench.Step1
Step2
Set on work bench (preferably on old towel). Remove (3) connectors for inverter board. Remove (3-4) screws in HV cage. Remove CRT neck shield. Remove 4 screws from upper frame support bracket and set aside. Carefully remove neck board, grasping it from the plastic connector and wiggling it loose; fragile is the key word here. Remove 4-pin yoke connector from board. Tilt chassis up and disconnect degauss connector. Remove 2 screws holding circuit board to chassis. Use needle-nose pliers to pinch and push through board stand-offs.Step2
