CRT safety
Caution
You can die doing this! So read carefully! CRT TV is not a toy. Do not open a CRT TV. If you don't have any prior knowledge about handling high voltage devices, this guide is not for you. CRT TV contains high enough voltage (20,000+ V) and current to be deadly, even when it is turned off.

RGB mux diagram
Prepare the mux diagram. If you are building your own circuit, this diagram should help.
Performing the mod
STEP 1: Remove components
If there are R327, R328, R329 resistors, you should remove them.
If you are going to use the 0.1uF caps on the mux board, you should also remove C319, C320, C321.
STEP 2: R, G, B and blanking wires
Solder the R, G, B and blanking wires
STEP 3: Audio, Sync and Ground wires
STEP 4: Prepare the mux board
This mod uses the RGB mux board. This is optional, but will make your mod easier and stable. You can also create the circuit presented in the schematics above without the board. Please also checkout the mux calculator to play with your own values.
