Olga!

thanks for the hint and the link to your thread... do you mean that the glass will just pop out by pulling???

It's not glass. It's plastic. Did you open the part you received from the vendor? Have you "felt" it to see what it is like? That's what you have to remove. And yes, pulling it with some type of tool, perhaps from near the crack, should help remove the cover, just as it did in the older message picture.

I presume, I need to apply some heat source...?

I would not. It can be done without heat.

Good Luck!
