Windshield trim removal?, Is the trim removable /replacable, Options

[Bates]

I need a new windshield, and plan to paint my 914, but not now.

Is it possible to remove the aluminum windshield trim without damaging the plastic clips that hold it in place.

I want to replace the windshield now, and when I do paint, remove the aluminum trim so paint can be applied up and under the trim.

Thanks.

Last year I had my local old school auto glass corner shop replace a front windshield. Out the door for in the $350. range if I remember correctly and he saved the aluminum molding and the clips. My 914 is barely a driver, but he did a superior job. I have been a glazier for many years, but also know my limits and took it in to have it done correctly.
