Changing Bullet Diaphragms?

I have an 075 with a weak magnet and a 2402 with a shattered diaphragm. Has anyone ever un-soldered and moved a diaphragm from one tweeter to another? I'm worried about damaging it when I take it out. The wires are pretty thin and short.

The soldering isn't too bad, just be sure to not let the phase plug (bullet) spin when you loosen and tighten the screw holding it on. That can twist the diaphragm foil and wreck it right quick. Just use a hot iron where you don't have to keep it on the joint too long.

Thanks, I just ended up trading them back to the seller for some 2402H tweeters.
