I had the neck and bridge pickups changedo n my strat a long time ago. The stock pickup cover in the middle is a smoke stained yellow and the neck pickup is a new white cover.

I wanna change the neck pickup cover to a stock one so it matches. Is this very difficult to do? I've never taken the pickguard off before so I really have no idea. Seeems like I could just take it off and unscrew the pickup and just change the cover and put it back? I may be far off. Thanks in advance for any advice.
 
Re: pickup cover change?

do it like you describe... it's pretty easy! desoldering the wires it maybe a pain if you got a low wattage soldering iron (if you're gonna replace the pickup too).

No, I'm just changing the cover. I'm keeping the pickup the same. I don't need to do anything to the wires just for a cover change do I? tthanks btw
