    • Take one spudger and fit it under the grille.

    • Use your first spudger to pry up and make room to insert a second one.

    • Sever the glue connections between the grille and the device by moving one spudger around, cutting through the glue.

    • Use the other spudger to raise the grille, allowing you to see where you're working.

    • Since you're cutting the glue, the grille may not stick as well when reassembled.
