Headlight wiper removal

I'm stuck at step 1 of replacing a headlight lens on my 1995 C220. I can't seem to get the headlight wiper arm off the shaft. MB says "Press on cover". That doesn't get it. There appears to be what looks like a setscrew securing the cover of the wiper arm, but it only has a shallow concave head with a hole in the center, rather than an internal hex pattern. And its tiny! Have to get this cover out of the way to get to the wiper motor shaft nut. Any suggestions?

I'll answer my own question. Answer = just rip it off. Replacement cover for the arm was $9 and was in stock at local MB dealer.

You remind me of myself. Too funny.
