Dang camera wasn't charged last night.  I will get that pic on here tonight though of the inside.  Let you guys take a looksie!

Sorry it took soo long but here is the best remote pic I could take.  I can anser more questions if you have them about this remote.

Image isn't very good but looks like a regular PCB. Time to fire up the soldering iron!

rdowdy95:
See how it has the little black things.  Right.  On the PCB the little black spots on the PCB well those are where the buttons hit if I had the rubber buttons on.  So I guess like you say just to make sure though.  I tin the red and black wire and solder them both to the little black part part of the PCB where the power button goes right?  My solder skills suck bad, but I did manage to solder the IR Diode and extend the wires to the front of the TV.  So I hope I just don't screw this up.  I do have the desolder roll stuff though.  Is it hard to get the solder to stick to the PCB?  Cause this will be the first time I ever solder something that didn't have holes to solder through. 

Also do I have to make the red and black wire be seperate, or can I solder them together then solder to the pcb.  This is going to be tough.

Don't cook it too long, and make sure you've cleaned the spots properly before soldering, and it should be a breeze. Drop a little solder on the spot and pre-tin the wire and it should be easy.
