Yes it can be done, but only if you have very good skills with a soldering iron and surface mount soldering skills and own a very small tipped soldering iron (low wattage).....Its time consuming especially if you dont know what your doing, if you REALLY want it done take it to a professional....I have replaced some of the LED's in my sony face, but i have had a lot of experience with fiddly jobs.....

Well if you just need the LED's it depends how many you need, the LED's cost anywhere from 20c each to $8 each.....
