Ecobee 3 Lite Install on Ancient Furnace, without C wire or system board!

I was visiting a friend's house and they asked me to install a smart thermostat! Upon inspection, the cabling was missing the C wire. Even worse there was no modern system board on this furnace. This thing is ancient! Here is how I install an Ecobee smart thermostat on a system like this!
This will help modernize a small portion of the HVAC system as well as help this family on their way to creating a smart home.

As this was a surprise I was missing all of my equipment and did this all on my phone so my apologies for any imperfections on the video / audio. I figured this would help someone out there and wanted to share it asap as is!
