If the DIYs you find don't indicate that you do, then why do it? Unless you screwed up and did just that.

Why do people not list all the details in the first post?

Do not remove the baffling.

I would have preferred you say what you had done in the first post instead of the seventh. It would have saved some time.

Do not remove the baffling unless you can reinstall it.
