I just got my Grand Lizard MPU out of the backbox, and it was a real b!tch getting the connectors apart. Other games I have, tend to have ones that slide on and off much nicer than this. There is no heat or damage visible anywhere, they all look really clean overall.

Any ideas to make it easier for the next attachment/removal?

thanks,

The board may have never been removed before. They loosen up with insertion and removal cycles.

Better too tight than too loose!
