I have seen tubes for sale from projectorspecs.com and what I am wondering is:
- Is it possible to put a new tube in yourself?
- Can you replace just the blue tube?
- What exactly is involved with replacing the tubes?

I know this can be done by a professional and that I can always buy another unit but I am really interested in tackling this myself.
Thanks,
