Just used this technique last night and it worked like a charm.
Also a tip, as you begin label each wire with tape by order. I went with what I believe is the GB1 sequence so this next suggestion only applies for that setup.
All you need to do is remove wires 1,2,3,5,7 (leave 4,6)
Once you have all the wires out it's easy moving from there, insert the numbered wires in this order:
Put wire one into hole 3
Put wire two into hole 5
Put wire three into hole 7
Wire 4 is already where it needs to be
Put wire five into hole 1
Wire 6 is already where it needs to be
Put wire 7 into hole 2
Another suggestion: As you finish inserting the wire, be sure it is seated all the way down, you shouldn't see any silver where the wire inserts, Also press the plastic clip back down to ensure it secures the wire. You don't want any wires sliding out due to a poor connection
Repeat
and you got your self a better looking if not more screen accurate LED sequence!
Took me about 15 minutes in total.
