I bought a P60 type drop-in and removed the R2 from the star using my stove top. I was surprised at how well it worked, about 2 seconds at high heat and it came right off. It also left all the solder behind on the board.:twothumbs
Try Shiningbeam, I just recieved an r2 on board he may have it bare. He is in the usa and an excellent person to buy from (I'm a happy customer). www.shiningbeam.com
