I just ordered a new headphone jack because i ripped the ribbon cable that connects it, the connecter looks like this

and this is the new one

How do i A) get the old one off without damaging the ipod, and B) put the new one on. (i assume its just a simple de-sodering followed by soddering the new one on to it. but the ribbon cable is so thin that i dont know how to handle it.) Thanks to the more experienced modders out there who are willing to lend a hand!
