Best way to remove rear hatch glass?

[peter at thescirocco.com (Peter)]

You use the old rope trick, it works for removing glass to. It's much easier
to remove the rear window...

Start out by going around the entire window and free up the seal from the
hatch, use plenty of Dawn dish detergent and get it in everywhere. The glass
and seal come out easier without the trim, but it's not necessary to remove
it.

I phucked up...  I (willingly) destroyed the rear hatch window seal on my 75
to get the window out without breaking it - thinking that Vintage Rubber
(guy on Ebay) made front and rear seals.  Well it turns out he only makes
the front stock seal, buts make front and rear Cal-look (without trim).
Arrrrrgggg...  I'm pissed cause the seal on the 75 wasn't that bad -
probably the best one I have...

SO, my question is - what's the best way to remove the rear hatch glass, and
still save the seal?  I have a few hatches in my pile-o-parts, but only one
has a semi-non-sunbaked seal on it, so I can't screw it up...

Anyone have a decent rear hatch seal they'd like to sell me (don't need the
trim - I have a nice set)?

Thanks!

Mark.
