Hi Shaun,it's worth giving it ago,I would say practice on a nice little 32" for starters & take your time,snails pace,because one silly knock of the screen edge & it could all be over.
I tell you what though,some of those burn up pictures are scary,I've never had one anywhere near as bad.
I guess it will be a thing of the past if the price of O LED comes down drastically.

Have done a few of the Toshiba 40 inch . They seem relatively easy and the screens are quite sturdy . The 2 LGs I have tried to do the screens have broken even though I tried to do it gently . Have only tried to fix 2 . Tried to fix the second one with the LEDs from the first that I broke the screen on . Apart from being flimsy the lenses fall of the LEDs when you remove them from the LEDs . The main problem doing them is where they break is the connections from the screens to the driver board . If you just bend them a little it breaks the screen . Better telling the customer if the TV is less than 2 years old to go back to shop and demand a new TV or they will go to Trading Standards and you charge them £30 for an engineers report.  £30 in the hand is better than a broken screen or even a repair and the customer may be back in 6 months with more LEDs gone
