How to replace multiple numbers?

hello everyone
i searched the net and i could not find script for this request.
i believe sed command will do it but i'm not sure about how.

my file contains thousands of records, the following is sample:
Code:
BEGIN
ASX15001
BEGIN
ASX15000000500020101230
ASX18001020070002010123
ASX16001000050002010123
ASX19001000060002010675
ASX18001020070052010034
ASX18001030040002010768
ASX19001000120002010123
ASX14001000050002010754
ASX19001000070022010123
ASX18002000120002010876
ASX18001000040002010123
END

what i need is to
1- search for 13 digits number after ASX and that number starts with 18 or 19 and contains 07 or 12 at digit 9 and 10 (red and blue numbers meet this requirement)
2- replace the digits 9 to 0 and digit 10 to 0

the output should be
Code:
BEGIN
ASX15001000050002010123
ASX18001020000002010123
ASX16001000050002010123
ASX19001000060002010675
ASX18001020000052010034
ASX18001030040002010768
ASX19001000000002010123
ASX14001000050002010754
ASX19001000000022010123
ASX18002000000002010876
ASX18001000040002010123
END

how to do it?
thank you

uudemon(4)						     Kernel Interfaces Manual							uudemon(4)

NAME
uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour, uudemon.poll - Administrative shell scripts for polling remote systems, cleaning up spool directories, reporting status to the system administrator, and routine invocations of the uuxqt and uusched daemons SYNOPSIS
These shell scripts reside in the following directory: /usr/lib/uucp DESCRIPTION
All the scripts can be run from the command line or can be run automatically by the cron daemon. To automatically run the scripts, remove the comment character (#) from the beginning of the relevant line in the /var/spool/cron/crontabs/uucp file. This script reports status to the system administrator. It issues the uustat command to find out the status of uucp jobs. It mails the results to the uucp login ID. The script may be modified to send mail to any login ID such as the uucp administrative login ID (uucpa) or root. This script cleans up the /var/spool/uucp and /var/spool/uucppublic directories by running the uucleanup command. The uucleanup com- mand is run with the following parameters: -C7, -D7, X2, -o2, -W1. This script runs the uusched and uuxqt daemons in the background. This script polls the systems listed in the /usr/lib/uucp/Poll file. The uudemon.poll script should be scheduled before the uudemon.hour script. This allows uudemon.poll to create any command files before cron runs the uudemon.hour script. FILES
Contains the uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour and uudemon.poll files. Contains the uucp file. RELATED INFORMATION
Commands: cron(8), uucleanup(8), uusched(8), uuxqt(1) Files: /usr/lib/uucp delim off uudemon(4)
