yeah, well worth it.

I did mine using a heat gun I use for shrink wrapping wiring (like the paint stripping version but not as powerful). I would try avoid the oven method if you can. The gun gives you far greater control. Gently warm it up - especially in this cold weather...make sure all the screws have been removed from behind before starting to prise away the front cover.

Then just work your way around until it comes off.

Heat all the silicon up until soft n sticky, then slap the cover back on and tighen up.
