I have very little experience with SMT components but I recall that I had to
remove a couple to do one of the earlier K3 mods. I just used two soldering
irons and applied them to both ends of the part at the same time and it was
off in a jiffy. MUCH easier than removing parts from thru-hole boards.

So is this really as difficult as people make out?
