Virgin V+ box how to remove chip?

[deckymckeown]

Hi

I recently bought a v+ box and have gave it to a friend to chip. He is having a problem removing the chip to read the data and wipe(?).

Apparently the chip is covered by a thick plastic coating. What is the best way to remove this covering, and does anything else need to be done before removing the covering and the chip?

Also, are there any step by step guides out there?

Thanks a lot
