But, the clear plastic is vaguely welded onto the dark casing so you can very carefully prise it away. It cracks easily so you have to slowly break the welds with a fine flat screwdriver, you'll find that as you prise it away it becomes easier. Just be careful with it when you first start.

Get yourself a hair dryer and craft knife, heat around the edge a bit a time, get it really hot, then scrape the knife along the edge and the plastic welds should start to seperate.
Take your time... That's best advice I can give you.
