I changed one last week and I used 150 Celcius on my air station. It will not melt the plastic trim around the glass. You have to be very careful and do not hurry. Repeat, do not hurry. It will come out without breaking. I started with a small spatula and a suction cup and after getting a little working room I use guitar picks to remove the glass.
