I’m curious what’s the reason to take the trim out with the glass and seal still in the car? I’m not trying to be a jagbag asking that. I’m honestly curious what your intent is in taking out only the trim

I’m with pompadori on this one if we’re talking about replacing the seal anyway. An old seal loses its grip on the car body frame and often times you can EASILY push out the windshield from the inside of the car. However if the seal is still tight and the glass is firm in the body, I’d be cutting it with a utility knife.

Sure you can get the trim out with the tricks the other guys have mentioned. But how do you get it back in the seal with the glass still in the car? I’ve found that you bend the heck out of the trim trying to force it into the seal groove with the glass in the car. That trim is soooooooo easy to form, bend, dent, etc. I HATE IT!!!!!!!
