Core Duo CPU upgrade to Core 2 Duo CPU?

Text:

Hey iFixers,

I have been upgrading all possible components of my early 2006 iMac (HDD and optical drive) with help from iFixit. My next venture is to upgrade the CD CPU to C2D CPU. I know this is possible as it's socketed. I have found a "tutorial" on MacLife to do this but am wondering if anyone here has done it and might have some advice/tips on the best (easiest) way to undertake such a daunting task.

Device:

iMac Intel 20" EMC 2105 and 2118
