It wasn't difficult to me, just time consuming really since I was taking it slow and keeping everything organized. I have all the appropriate tools for things like a screen swap and such though, along with the patience and expertise to do it safely - So I might not be the best person to answer about the difficulty in a way that would be true for others.
I'm assuming there's more to it than simple taking the case off and switching it all into the new one?
Yep, gotta take out individual parts one at a time and transfer them over, but you have to do the assembly in roughly reverse order, which means disassembly, then assembly with the new case.
