The main challenge are 4 (I think) small spring-loaded ball bearings that lurk under the screen frame. You need to gingerly loosen the frame setscrews to make sure the ball bearings don't fly out and get lost. Then you need to make sure they stay in place, against the spring pressure, when you replace the screen frame. Just go slow and deliberately, and it should go smoothly. The view is appreciably brighter with the brightscreen. Good luck!
