Now a word of caution - the connector pins will most likely be tarnished of corroded. These should be replaced. If they are corroded, then the corrosion will creep up on your new board.

Thanks for the info.  Yes I was expecting I would probably have the tedious task of replacing the connector pins. I never considered the corrosion creeping up into the new board tho, but it maks sense now you mention it. I guess to be thorough I should probably look at replacing them all rather than just any suspect looking ones.
