I do it a bit differently.  I go around the outside
and inside of the seal with a PLASTIC or WOODEN
spatula.  This is to loosen the seal from the painted
surface.  I do not use a metal screw driver as that
will scratch the paint and then you'll be doing it all
again when the rust hits that spot.

I then get in the van and push with my feet on a
corner - VERY - carefully, as my wife is on the
outside to make sure the window does not fall.  Once
one corner is loose, then I go around the rest of the
window pushing till it is free, the it will just
comeout from the outside.

It took one window to figure out the rope trick/aid
when putting the window back in.  M
