It take it you mean the plastic film that covers the LCD panel ? If so, I found that OK
However I found another small mod that may improve IR reception, but not sure yet.
If you open the flap and shine a small torch through the LCD window of the flap from underneath you will see it is clear.
If you then shine it through the small circular window that the IR receiver is behind you will find that this is slightly darker. In fact during the manufacture of the flap it looks the whole thing with the exception of the LCD window was sprayed with a kind of semi transparent grey material (on the inside). I think that this should have been masked off the same as the LCD aperture.
I took a small knife and scraped this off of the aperture on the inside of the flap. This makes the aperture clear the same as the LCD window. The only downside of doing this is you see the small circular IR aperture when looking at the front panel. I will see over time if it makes any improvement
