I found a place that can get me a used rear glass...$760 plus $250 shipping. Not going to go that route just yet, if ever, seeing as I only have about $2K into the car and haven't really driven it yet!

I have 2 suitable parts cars. I've removed the trim from one and have actually been able to push a putty knife through the adhesive bead for a few inches along the side. On either side of that few inched the adhesive is hard as a rock.

I've thought about heating the putty knife before trying to push it through. Wondering in anybody has any other suggestions for methods to try. I know about the wire technique but I have broken glass before doing that. I only have two pieces of glass and I need them both.

What do y'all think?
