     First of all, you have to remove the old glass, by inserting your fingers behind it and prying it out. You have to pull the piece out from the extremity, but if the glass is broken, we recommend you to use gloves, to avoid accidents. If the glass is intact, pry it out slowly with your fingers or using a flat blade screwdriver. After you remove it, unplug the two electrical wires used for heating, shown in the picture below.
