I pulled mine apart about 3 weeks ago. I went to a glass replacment shop and the guy there looked at it and said "good luck". He then handed me 2 tubes of the glue for free. It took two 5-6 hour days to get the thing apart, by using a 1 and 1/2 inch flexable steel putty knife and some narrow wood wedges to pull the already seperated frame from glass. It was holding together very well except at the driverside top corner. Another couple hours to clean the glass and frame. Straighten the frame. The reglueing part was easy. Had the wife help reset the glass. After waiting a full day and 1/2, I replace the spolier and trim pieces. I waited a another week to attach the shocks. The whole event took almost 4 working days and it was much harder event then pulling an engine. It did feel like I was going to break the glass, but the glass is rather thick and remarkably strong and flexable.
