Back camera cover cracked
The glass panel covering the back camera has a crack in it. Can this be replaced? Both back cameras still work, but small bits of dirt start creeping in through the crack.

Yes, look on eBay or replacebase. For now put a piece of sellotape over the glass to stop more dirt getting in.
Update (10/06/2022)
Safest way to avoid getting more dirt and possibly damaging the camera is to remove the back cover the apply heat to the glass with a hair dryer or hot air station then pushing the glass out from the inside. Riskier is to apply heat then pick out the glass with a craft knife or tweezers.

I found them on eBay like you said. But how do I replace it? Is it best to follow the ”Rear Camera Assembly Replacement” guide?
@bramv updated my answer
@bramv, There's a video on YouTube describing @strongbow's riskier approach that will give you a good idea of what you're dealing with on this repair.

The guy in the video found that the replacement lens he was sent was actually made of plastic, not glass, so I would think that's something you'll want to be sure of when you order a replacement. There's one on Amazon that specifically says it's made of glass that would work.
@dadibrokeit thanks for the YouTube link. Makes it more clear on how to do it. Thanks!
