Two remove the SID from the dash, insert an M4 (metric) machine bolt in each hole. PULL. If it doesn't immediately release, work a flat blade at the top of the unit to release the locking tab. It shouldn't be difficult.
Then to open the unit it's just a couple of phillips head screws... and slide off the plastic plate surrounding the connector.
Now plug the naked SID back in and wiggle the ribbon cable connecting the LCD to the circuit board. That's where the problems are... The LCD's themselves typically don't just "go bad".
Note that the SID unit retails for over $500!! Smart junkyards will probably know what it's worth and try to charge you about half that. Try and find a dumb junkyard... ;-)
