(Answered) How do I remove the lens from an HDS EDC?

[9volt]

I'm trying to put a glow ring in my HDS and I can't figure out how to get the lens out. I've got the bezel off, and I figured it would just fall out but it isn't. Can I get some help?

It is probably just sticking a bit since the O-ring on the inside is lubed. A "post it" note or something sticky that doesn't leave a residue should be fine. Small suction cup should also be fine.

If you try prying you should be very careful.

Thanks! Some packing tape worked. You get a cookie.

Just push down on one edge of the lens with your fingernail, the other side will raise up and the lens will be loose.

edit; tape might remove some of the anti-reflective coating.
