1)   Remove the "lock" button cover

2)   Remove the four screws

3)   Carefully split it apart be careful not to loose the small parts when you split it! (plastic pegs, spring, etc)

4)   Now you will see two circuit boards each with two plastic nipples sticking out of them and this is what is holding the circuit boards down. 
Your removal choice is up to you.  Mine was to snip the pins, heat up the solder and pull out the pin and do the next.

Once you have the boards out you may now start the soldering work.


5)   Unsolder the LED from the board, then take your new LED and try to bend and cut to what the old one's shape and length was.  If you do not get this right, the light might not shine properly.

Reverse procedure.

Hopefully you didn't loose any parts :)
