With some careful maneuvering, the Apple TV base should pop off.
-
A large pink square will be visible once the base is removed. This is the thermal pad.

The heat sink is the large black piece holding the thermal pad in place. The heat sink is metal and it’s purpose is to draw heat away from the chips inside the device.

-
Once the pads are removed, they may either be reattached to a new heat sink or new thermal pads may be placed on the new heatsink.
