i agree with theastronaut... stay away from the hook knife. just sacrifice the small window panel and cut close enough to the seam to get at the spot welds. i had good luck with the panel adhesive. used big clamps and 2x4s to squeeze the gap till it dried. chad filled the seam and i thought that was a good look.

be prepared to drill out about a thousand welds. on my truck it must have been spotweld training day at the factory, they was one about every inch.

good luck buddy
