Default Quarter Window Removal

Yes I searched and even watched Van's video (his window was plastic and seemed to flex) but I'm having a very difficult time trying to remove the quarter windows out of my 944 Turbo. Two hours later and only got off the aluminum trim...

Any other tips or tricks?

Thank you.

i dont even pull the trim piece.
standing in the open door grab the top, forward corner and pull/pry up/outward as best you can with one hand.
reach around inside the car and with your other hand (fingers really) grab the rubber seal and pull it towards the center of the glass, you may have to fiddle around a bit to get a good grip.

eventually part of the seal will fold over enough and you can just slide your fingers around the inside and pull up the seal from the window frame.
fiddling to get a grip is the hard part, after that the whole window will come out in 1-2 minutes.

I'm pushing my luck now but how about putting it back in?

Van's string method?
