I haven't done this.  I've read a dissaembly trick for 35mm rangefinders is to 
press a rubber stopper onto rewind knobs (of
rangenfinders), then turn.

If you already have a replacement and are willing to destroy the present 
battery cover, you could also drill two very small holes in
it.  Then insert a pair of pliers with small pins on the business end and turn. 
 These plieers arecalled snap-ring pliers in the
USA, and I belive are called a "pin spanner" in the UK.
