Yep that be the one. I read that the USA guys were not doing this mod due to this glass being a "pain". I believe they use a ceramic glue to set the glass cover. Which cannot be undone with chemicals.

I'm not worried about the microlenses nor scraping the sensor just getting the glass off and of course not damming the peripheral contact fingers.

You gents have given me inspiration I may indeed attempt this as my 450D is a little long in the tooth and am looking for "yet another project"!.
