Problem with that is the pads are so small. Too much heat and the pads will lift off of the PCB and then it is FUBAR.

Best get someone to do it properly...than try yourself





Scot's do it better in Kilts.

Agreed. I'v been soldering for over 40 years (both at work and as a Radio Ham).
I might try it if it was mine, as already said, too easy to make it FUBAR.

That was probably soldered in a flow machine on a production line.
You may get away with very very careful application of a hot air gun.
This is how a lot of Surface mount chips are done these days.

I would have it done professionally.

If you can't find anyone closer I'd be happy to do it, I have full SM rework tools at work. However, I'm very much the other end of the country.
