Here's something I posted back in 2006 that you can try....

It may not work well if any sealant has been used. Let us know how it works if you try it.

No problem.

If you have to push very hard there is always the chance you will crack the windshield. Be sure and put even pressure on both sides when you push out on it. It might be a good idea if you had a helper also.
