Hello All,

I agree with the above.  I have never been able to successfully remove
any glass without cutting the seal.  Fortunately, the rubber has always
been trashed anyway so it was no loss.  The only time I was able to save
the rubber was when I was replacing a cracked windshield and simply
kicked the sucker out from the inside of the car.  I suggest placing a
blanket over the hood to prevent getting glass down into the fresh air
intake and protecting the paint.
