Used to do screens at Ford dealership, I always found it best to have the glass hot so the rubber goes soft, used to apply pressure with my head while unlipping the rubber seal across and it will pop out in 30 seconds or so, some used to have a metal/plastic rim insert on the outer edge of the rubber this needs to be removed first by hooking it out or the rubber wont flex
