nope tis easy and cheap get some long thin screwdrivers and push em down holes behind the grub screws or buy the actual tools from halfords like £5, then remove cage, then just plug and play everything, might want to cut the grey/red cable in the iso connector so that the MFD works, thats about it tho any Q's u2u me
