Nice save on those wires!
I've grabbed them near the glass with a pair of Needle nose pliers and bent them back in shape above that point so they don't break.

There's probably nothing in old TV restoration as nerve racking as doing this surgery on a CRT.
I had to do it on a NOS 7JP4 to fix a short, first getting the securely glued base off without breaking the nipple or any wires, then trying to get all 12 wires back in, nightmare!
