most of the times its hard to get the front glass out and not break it. but if i were to try it i would cut the stripping on the outside and then use some sorta line to cut the glue or whatnot that holding the glass, guess i'll have to try it this weekend
get some piano wire, poke a hole in the corner(screwdriver or something thin), and work it through with someone on the outside(the middle of the windshield is a bitch if you doing it yourself). installation, consult FSM, i personally have never put on back in so i caant comment; ive just taken them out
wear gloves with the wire too. itll cut your hand up pretty easy if your not careful

If you can get it out unbroken, I would recommend a professional install. Just a little oil from your fingers on the edges can prevent adhesion of the sealant, and then you've got a nasty leak.
get something sharp n cut the outside glue of it on top to the sides then go in the inside n cut the seal from the inside on the bottom then your able to pop the whole thing off.. ( was watching professionals do it on my car )
recommend professional installation because you dont want any loose seals or the seal showing in any way or it looks crappy. good luck on getting it out though
