Ok this was not too difficult but not for the faint at heart either. I did run into three problems:
1) I broke one of the connectors that supply power/information to the home button :(.
2) The display works but the buttons do not match up to what I press. If I press the 7 button, I get either the 3 or the 9 button, when I press the 3 button, I get the cancel button, etc.
3) I broke te little white piece that secures piece (3) to the board. Not sure if this ithe reason I am having problems as listed in number 2 above.
Duct tape or 3m double sided tape should do the juob. I had the same problem and solved it with taking a piece of duct tape folding it onto itself and leaving about and inch still undone. I pushed the ens own onto the glass and used the center as a handle. Imagine two capital L's back to back to get an idea of what I am talking about.

Quite frankly the hardest part about this process is removing the old adhesive. Take your time!!!
We used the hair dryer and heated the glass side and pryed as I went and it all came up.
