Wow I got an answer better than expected! "Sorry i not this item instructions.Thanks"
Ah well... the search continues!

I finallllly found out how to change the digitizer and did it. The only trouble I have was I couldnt keep the sticky for the digitzer on the phone. So not the new digitizer isnt sticking so well. Any suggestions on what to use as a glue?
The hardest part is separating the chrome front from the backing. Took a fair bit of patience... Otherwise it is reasonably straight forward.

So is the digitizer actually glued to the LCD ? I am thinking to replace the digitizer but if it too much of hassle probably I have to pay $100 for the TEP. Thanks.

No it is not. The lens mounts from the front of the bezel, the
lcd mounts behind the bezel.The lcd on mine seemed to be stuck on the overlapped doubled sided sticky gasket that's used to hold the lens.

And yes I was impatient and cracked the lcd. Use of a heat gun around the bezel to soften the sticky gasket is highly encouraged.
