You triggered an old (dormant) memory. Back in the 1970s, certain GE portable TVs had a recall campaign because of excessive X-Ray emissions. GE opted to replace the glass HV rectifier with a leaded rubber jacket tube instead of building a new HV cage to retrofit the chassis. Swapping the lead coated rectifier tube took 3 minutes, and 2:50 of that was pulling off the plastic rear cover and reinstalling. I'm pretty sure I still have one of those leaded rectifier tubes somewhere.
