Today I removed the windscreen. I was well under way to cut it out undamaged, but then it bursted...... I want to get the rear window out undamaged. Is there a secure way of getting the rear window out?

The usual method is a cheese wire I think. How were you trying to get the front out?

I tried to slice the kit away with a thin stanley knife blade that i could also bend. The blade broke a lot of times. I one of the lower corners there was really a lot of kit. At one of the atttemps to get through with the thin blade a burst came into the corner. Then I decided to got the rought way and get it out......

The bottom end of the rear sreen it makes me wonder how to cut it looose. It also has the carbon strip. Do I cut the screen loose at the bottom? Do I get the carbon strip after the screen is out?

It's out. Just slicing the kit out with a stanley knife. From the outside and from the inside.....
