I'm sure it was replaced then and a PO glued it in. That shouldn't be like that. There should be no glue present.

If you are going to replace the gasket, just take a utility knife and cut the gasket all the way around the glass. Then the glass will come out no problem.

any idea where I would get the oem style gasket so it remains without glue like a replacement.
