Default A couple electronics-related questions

Has anyone soldered in a new LCD screen from that pixel replace store (forget the link and I'm on my phone)? I have some electronics experience, just wondering how difficult it is, scale if 1-10 maybe?

My second question is more of an opinion one. Currently I have a pioneer mvh p8200bt in for a head unit, but I'm looking for something better, something double din (besides I'm sick of this one haha). I've been looking at the p4300, wondering if anyone has it and some pros/cons? Or where they installed the brain for the Bluetooth, if you got it? Thanks.

On my list of things to do is replace the LCD screen on an extra cluster I have that will be swapped in (my current cluster is non-LCD). Paid $45 shipped for the replacement LCD screen from a guy on Fourtitude (he should have more, user ID is "reflected".

From the video on YouTube it doesn't seem overly complicated. I've got lots of soldering experience, and while the tip on my iron will be too big, I can make it work
