Colour Classic VGA -OUTPUT- mod / add in VGA cable

Hi Everyone

I have picked my fourth Colour Classic today.  The CRT needs replacing as I think the blue gun / colour has completely dropped out.  I have previously converted an Apple //c monitor to LCD by using only the shell and adding in video controllers etc.  The video controller accepts VGA input so I was wondering as the 9" screen will fit in the CC shell, can I solder in a VGA cable to the mainboard? 

I'm assuming along the gold connector there is RGBHV or RGB Csync?

 
its unlikely to have a dead blue gun with a good red and green gun unless the cathode opens up. Only way to test for that is tapping on the neck while its on, it may pop in and out. 

Otherwise its more likely an electronic issue.
