How easy is to replace X-Squared Lenses

Dark guy, not dark alley

XS is one of the easier lenses to install if you do it right.

Start at the bottom near the orbital screw and put the lens in that corner. Hold the jaw open and slide the lens into the other bottom corner. Then pop the top in the frame like O Matter. Ever since @zwc0442 told me that way I haven't chipped or scratched a lens.

If you go top first you're almost guaranteed to scratch the lens on that bottom corner near the orbital screw.
 
Opening the orbital is the hard part...

Even after you pry it open, the lens still requires forceful entry...

I've never damaged a lens, but the process is the most difficult of any xmetal...
