Remove rear quarter window on S14 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I'd like to remove the rear quarter windows on my S14 without breaking them, and I'm having a heck of a time figuring out how. The FSM isn't much help here, just mentioning a couple clips bonded to the glass, and some sealant. I really don't want to break this glass, as I'd like to reinstall it after paint. Can anyone offer any assistance, advice, or (hopefully) pictures?

How I did it was remove the interior panels and cut the glue with a razor blade a little bit. Then took a heat gun to heat up the glue. I pushed the glass from the inside and my dad was on the outside and was able to slide a flathead screwdriver between the glass and glue on the front part of the glass wheee the door window is and he pried gently. Just go slow and the glass comes out slowly.

Heat and screwdriver trick worked. Thanks!
