that's going to be really tough due to the age of the car pec.

try a little heat (watch the paint!) and/or just be really careful.

ahhh, the BACK windshield. since pec had implied it being difficult, i instantly assumed he was referring to the front windshield.

if it's the rear windshield: yeah, what nt66 said.

you could try nt66's suggestion of applying soapy water for the front windshield in removing the trim.
