easy way is to cut all the rubber seals an then they just fall out, but you cant use the rubbers again. Other way is to get two people an peal the seal back an pop the windows out, can be a bit fiddley though.

use a screw driver but be carefull and up and over the rubber inside the car over the metal the rubber sits in.go around the window and it will come out with the rubber still on.its hard to explain but once u start u'll get wot i mean.its time consuming tho

hope that help mate

screw driver in the corner till they open a lil bit,
then just push them out!

Push from the inside out starting at a corner at the top. Whilst you are pushing the glass pull the rubber inside in towards the middle of the glass and over the metal lip that retains it all. Keep working away up and down each side next to the corner gradually getting it to ease outwards. Move to the other top corner as the glass starts to come out. Be patient and dont overdo it or try hitting it. Screw drivers are ok but you got to be very careful as they can introduce point loading on the edge of the glass= nasty crack. The windscreen is the worst - the rest aren't too bad
