Default Want to install new hook keeper advice please

I have several rods that I really like that I dislike the keeper on, or they don't have one, and I hate the 'rubber ring' style keepers. I would like to install the 'drop style?' keepers like this one: http://www.shofftackle.com/drop-style-hookkeepers.html

on these rods, so I am looking for advice on doing so. I had a St Croix Mojo Bass rod that had one, and I still have a Bass Pro custome that has one of this style, and I really like them. A few of the rods I have are pretty expensive by my standards, (St Croix Avids) and I was wanting to remove the standard eye ring style(?) keepers and install the drop style myself, but I would leave the old ones on there if removing them is something that it is easy to screw up your rod if you do.....

I was hoping that it would be as simple as marking the locations, putting the thread wrap over the end of the keeper, and then sealing the thread with the appropriate material, just looking for some advice on doing this.

Thanks!
