62 c/10 windshield /back glass

Any tips on getting the glass out in one piece. Never removed a windshield with the rubber around it. Also anybody have a line on new windshields for the 62. This one is use able,but rubber is rotten so has to come out anyway. Has a couple chips in it and bubbles around the edges. Just don't want to break it in case I do use it again.

use a knife and cut out the rubber around the windshield, sometimes local glass shops carry windshield and some will replace it.

yep don't even try it another way, get a good sharp razor knife and cut away all the rubber until you see the whole edge of the glass. even then you have to be careful pushing it out ,if the corners grab or you push too hard in one spot you could start a crack.

rear window is much easier, pick a good hot day, so the rubber is a little more pliable, pull the bead lock out, and then at the seam slowly start working the rubber over the lip.
