I am fully aware that this can be done.
Seen the iFixit video, there is a rather long thread here in the Apple forums, as well.
There is also a thread/posting here where the procedure has been both documented step by step and the poster even tagged all of the parts and various screws and fasteners with post it notes for help to others.
This is still NOT an easy tear down.
Things can be missed, things can get damaged if not careful.
There have been iMac users here, fairly recently,that attempted this using the iFixit video as guide and DID brick their iMac or was not running correctly after assembly!
These particular iFixit videos make this look easy, but new Mac users and those new or novices to upgrading Macs do not realize that these tear downs and reassembles are being done by people who are experienced at doing such things, already. They make the job is doing look really easy and straight forward. Trust me, it is not!
Plus, if you still have AppleCare and/or the extended warranty, doing this will void all of the warranty protection.
If something gets screwed up during take down or reassembly and the user can't figure out what went wrong, they are on their own and may have to pay for an expensive repair.
I am 20 year Mac user and have done, at least, over a dozen major Mac upgrades in that time. Most were Mac towers, two or three were earlier model iMacs, and a Mac Mini.
So, yeah, I think I know a little more about all of this than you.
An iMac internal mod is NOT for a newbie or novice user or computer upgrader to take on.
That stated, If the OP intends to do this, they will be doing this at their own risk.
