i am aware of what i need to do or what i need i ma just not sure if i actually want to crack both compacts open the crt worries me
Oh no -- not that *again*!

Really really really truly verily in truth there is no need to fear the crt in a compact mac. Ignore the well-meaning, but fearmongering know-nothings who promulgate the crappage that crts can vaporize delicate internal (and external) organs from halfway around the world.

Sigh.

[summary: The HV bits are extremely well insulated. But even if they weren't, the energy stored is insufficient to do anything other than give you a zap similar to what you've experienced before on dry days, reaching for a doorknob.]

So get yourself a long torx driver and some simms. Do it now. You'll feel better (and so will your Mac).
