I've also got some suction cups to lift the glass to get at the current drive, however, I thought the glass was held on with magnets (previous version was), now it seems that they use some sort of double sided tape.

Anyone know of anywhere in Dublin I can get some tomorrow in order to be able to swap out over the weekend ?
