So I need to get a busted up windshield out of my car. it looks like someone has taken a brick to it because I tried forcing it out with my 17" feet but right through they went. So I later tried taking wire and break the seal and that didnt work either. What do you all do to get the windshield up. I also heated the seal with a torch and that didnt work either. So tell me what the deal is here.

i dont dick with windshields....i get a glass guy to come out and remove it. He only charges me 20 bucks to take it out. Sometimes he doesnt charge me at all.

I wouldnt want to break up a windshield tryin to get it out....that glass gets EVERYWHERE!!!

Piano Wire, Glass Knife with pull handel, and long handeled razor/utility knife.. thats about all you need to take out almost any glass.. hell ive even used a regular utility knife and a sharpened putty knife a couple times to cut them out...

you have to have some patience, get the tool with the pull handle
