How to replace a window in your car or truck the right way!
What happens here
Locate the chrome trim around the perimeter of the windshield. Using a specialized hook tool designed for removing trim clips, carefully work the tool underneath the chrome trim to release the clips holding it in place. Gently pry and pull the trim away from the windshield frame. This process may be challenging if previous windshield replacements were done incorrectly, potentially with adhesive applied to the trim.
Goal: Detach the chrome decorative trim around the windshield.
