How to change IMEI to make it match the housing?

Hello,

I have a few iPhone 5c logic boards and housings. For some reason, I have an obsession that the IMEI on the logic board has to match the housing. I have a housing of a logic board that is physically damaged, but the housing works fine. How would I change the IMEI on a logic board to match the one on the housing?

Sounds like a personal problem. You can't change the imei. It would be like changing your social security number. I guess they would call that identity fraud?

What about swapping the baseband? Would that work?

The imei is linked to the cpu and baseband, so no.
