Where did you get the carrier soldered in?

I want this doing asap but can't find anyone to bloody do it! I want it to work obviously but want it to be a decent job too .ie retain the original map if possible

i have one lol, bought it for that job! it did work but took ages to slowly warm each pin up and suck it all out, the solder isnt just on the tip of the pin, it was right into the board(the hole the pin sits in)

Is the ECU gonna be out the car, I *might* know someone who will do it for you, might cost a few quid though, a mate of mine runs a surface mount assembly business in Darwen and he *might* do it for a few quid. Obviously you would need the ECU out of the car.

I could do that if it wasn't for too long can you ask for me? If he has a rough time frame I can make sure I don't need it for then

I've had a word and he's not too keen, in case something goes wrong, not that it could really, but hey, thats not his area, sorry dude.
