The losers that tinted mine pulled them out to do it. If those lot of ********s can do it then you can! :D

I haven't really looked that hard but I think that they are the "pull the spaghetti bit out of the rubber" type. then I would think you just gently push the window out.

And then to put them back in? I've read it is a proper pain in the proverbial

I have removed and re installed these many times and it is not difficult, provided the rubber hasn't gone hard. For $100 each you could buy new rubbers and have the glass tinted.

If the rubbers are still pliable . Remode the centre strip (spaghetti) and push the glass out starting at a bottom corner. It is best if someone can help - to catch the glass. Or do the job on the lawn.

the whole series is fantastic to watch and is a motivator to do a restoration if you've got the space, time and money :)
