swapping windshields?

[nealtovsen@yahoo.com (Neal Tovsen)]

I've done a couple Mk1's and one Mk2. Haven't broken anything going in.
In two attempts I've successfully removed two mk1 windshields from a
donor car with no problems. But thus far, I have been COMPLETELY
UNSUCCESSFUL at removing a Mk2 windshield from a donor, and there's been
about three tries so far. It seems like you have to cut the gasket.
Brian MacGarvey can testify...
