Sounds like the exact thing I would do!

Even the factory warning sticker did not stop me from prying at the can and doing exactly that. This was some years ago when I had an old G-E set that was pretty nice and really didnt need any attention in the can other than my obsession for cleaning. My cleaning cost me the set as my soldering skills at the time did not allow me to properly repair the torn wires. So we parted ways. At least I did find it a home and not a dumpster.

The G-E we are looking at here looks like a real neat and unique set. Hopefully it will find a home here in the A-K world. That thought alone made me want to put out this story/warning. I did not see the WARNING sticker on the can that I remember on mine. BE CAREFUL!!

That is one of the most unique cabinet ideas I have ever seen. Good to know about that HV can incase I ever find one!
