I need to replace the weatherstrip (main windshield exterior seal) on my windshield - when I took the black tape off the pilar (which looks SO much better painted...and the paint underneath was PERFECT) I used a heat gun and it melted part of the weatherstrip:

THE PROBLEM: Winshield replacement places all wanna tell me there is a 70-80% chance they will break my windshield replacing the seal! Sounds like a scam to guarantee they profit from a customer even if they don't have to replace the whole windshield! I already have the seal from Honda - it was like $70!

THE QUESTION: Anyone know how to remove the old one and replace the new one (or atleast get the old one off and the windshield out so these thieves don't have to break it rushing through the job on my car (quoted $65) to get to the $900 minivan windshield scheduled after me??
