@JonD:
I had the same problem. But it was a matter of the right pulling force. I pulled quite hard at both upper ends of the frame and one end moved a bit. From that it was possible to go on all around the window.

Herbert since you saw what I wrote before. There's actually a VERY simple no force way to remove the Perspex, In fact NO effort at all.
Get a flat screw driver one that fits between the Perspex and the frame (there's a tiny gap at the TOP of the frame). Lever it a little and gently pulling towards the frame the Perspex tab just pops out away from the frame then it just comes out.
Really simple and no effort actually

Thanks Fred glad I could contribute something at least. The pic is someone else's (Fintro) can't take credit for that, I just added the down arrow and the writing
I think some people may be able to pull the frame away easily, unfortunately mine was stuck like it was glued in, I nearly gave up trying and was going to see if I could buy another frame, as a last resort I tried the screw driver and was amazed how easily it popped out So I thought I'd share in case someone else experiences the same problem as I did.
Cheers
Who was it that said "Give me a long enough lever and I will move the Earth"? Hint he was Greek
