Default Removing carphone aerials

Going to look at an Audi S4 conv tomorrow but have just noticed that it has a stubby carphone aerial stuck to the windscreen. Are they easy to remove?

Stanley blade and 'chisel' it gently off the screen, but make sure the blade stays perfectly flat, don't try and lift the aerial base off otherwise you'll be ringing Autoglass for a new screen.....been there, done that ! You need to slice it off. Be patient with it.
