Default 1/4 glass removal

After over a year with my Prelude stuck in a barn, I have finally got round to sorting it out...

Im about to repaint the car as its in bare metal and I want to take out the rear 1/4 glass and the rear screen surround so that I can paint the car properly.

I am going to replace the 1/4 glass as the surrounds have shrunk and the car will look half finished with its new paint.

I remember a long time ago reading something about this but ive searched and found nothing on it.

Thanks in advance as any help is appreciated..

I just did mine when i changed my 1/4 panel.
I removed interior plastic and used a strong sharp exacto knife and sprayed wd40 around the urethane from inside. start cutting deeper and deeper all around ar you spray. spray the black glue, the knife. keep your fricken fingers outta there and use a solid knife (not the break off type)
eventually (20 mins or so) the window will be out. i didnt break or damage mine. Good luck
