ok hobbs i had a good look at the case pulled of the face plate and pulled back the side bit back a little but have nothing small enough that could slide down to unhook the side bits. And cannot see how it hooks up to each other what did u use coz im out of ideas.

After heating the warrenty sticker with a hairdryer to remove it, I've used a paperclip to remove the end covers and used 2 things to remove the top case.

Either:
1) a pair of cheap metal tweezers (girlfriend wasn't too happy that I bent them out of shape)

Or
2) small flat head screwdriver - like an electricians one, or one used for fixing glasses

I've foud both items work just as good as each other, you just have to remember that once the back clips 'pop' they are free. Don't keep pushing them like i did the first time, which resulted in them snapping and breaking the case.
