    help! removal of rear window Targa

    in light of the difficulties in obtaining rubber seals that fit properly for our cars, I hear many would prefer original even if used...so my question is?? ...how can I remove the
    rear glass on this Targa and how can I save the original rubber in the process, its in great shape, i'd hate to have to destroy it to remove the glass??

    any input appreciated...

    hey Zoo. There's a guy close to us on Colorado Blvd, ER who did both my Targa's. Do not try it yourself. Buy the factory rubber from Rusnak, NOT Performance Products. Hard part is the 2 sets of wires for the rear defroster. Call me and I'll give you the guy close to us #.

    Curt, thanks for the wise words, I got 2 to take out!
    one of the seals is so-so, I may just cut that one and try to save the other if possible.
