Re: front window gasket...
The front seals can be saved and reused but it is not a good practice as they don't always reseal when installed. I usually cut the seal as most of the time they are bad.
If you soap up the seal and make sure it is not stuck, the windshield can be pushed out, (carefully) taking the seal with it. (Usually the window breaks when I try it). If the window breaks when you are trying to remove it, small pieces of glass go everywhere so good eye protection is important if you attempt it. Having help is a good thing, also. Jim
