I bought them through Jo, sorry I can't remember but I don't think it was super-expensive. Jo is a really great guy and his guides are extremely well done (see https://joes-tech-blog.blogspot.com/2016/06/logitech-squeezebox-boom-vfd-display.html). I would say that it's a reasonnable job to do, but you must have an electric de-soldering pump otherwise it's way too painful to do all the through holes. IMHO, the Boom is "worth" it :) LMS 7.7, 7.8 and 7.9 - 5xRadio, 3xBoom, 4xDuet, 1xTouch, 1 SB2.
