Just what my title says. My parts car has a nice windshield. How do I get it out without cracking it?

I removed one by: First remove the trim. Then, take a wire (I used a guitar string), and insert through the butyl rubber. Then with someone on the other side of the wire, gently saw the wire back and forth around the perimeter of the windshield. I did this one day when it was hot outside, and the rubber cut fairly easily.
