Help! Door Gasket Removal

Does anyone have tips on removing and replacing of the door rubbers? They have been on along time and there has to be a trick. Solvent? Heat?

Thanks for the help.

Just use a sharp putty knife. Razor blade knife. Seemed to be the best way i found.

I just started to replace mine....Sharp razor and the scrapped old glue..Cleaned it up with a thinner solvent ...Glued new ones in and used a tip from FRANK'S...Bought me a box of the big clips to hold it in place while it set......

Nice idea... I wish I would have seen this back when I put mine on. I had to stand there and hold it while it dried.
