Remove an additional three 11.5 mm torx head screws in the same plane as step #4 photo, but near the hinges. This allows the cover hinges to be raised a bit for easier access to the screws removed in step #7. It also makes it easier to remove and reinstall the side cover.
My scanner glass was not broken, but inside surface had a dirty haze that was effecting my scans and needed cleaning. Thanks, I was ready to buy a new scanner.
