Just popped it off - came off REALLY easily............

So was it glued, or it just snaps on and off? Did you just put your fingers under it, and pulled upward? Thx.

I have taken mine off. it didn't seem to have any glue... the first time you take it off is a little tough but basically just reach under and pull up on all sides at the same time.
