Mike,

There is a lock strip in the rubber on the exterior. This will need to simply be popped out. Not torn off, just popped loose. If you look at the bottom corners of the gasket you may see a hole or divot, you can use a small Phillips screwdriver to start it going. The interior edge of the strip comes out, meaning the edge closer to the glass. If you want a picture I’ll take one and send it.

Thank you all for the replies. I’ll see if my glass guy knows how to remove the windows without cutting the gaskets. I’d hate to damage the glass.

I have used the rubber extrusion in bulk from Gary Goers many times. to many to count .
you must cut to length . make the splice in the bottom corners of the glass . then super glue them together .
then use wd 40 to install . Gary and I put in many this way .
Quiery got all the extrusions . I just put one in a 60 convertable the other day . If your slow it will take an hour!!!!!!!!
or you can try to make the old one soft again if you have lots of time on your hands.

Do not cut or damage the original gaskets when removing the glass. Soak them in lanolin until they are soft and pliable again. A common source for lanolin is mechanics hand cleaners like Gojo.(ensure it has lanolin) I like the large tubs they sell as refills for wall mounted pump machines in mechanical shops; the product without pumice.

I start by brushing it on heavily and keeping it in a plastic bag or bin. Keep treating it until it becomes soft and supple again. For me, the worst dried out and hard seals (from a California car) took several months of sitting and soaking to restore but they came back and cleaned up like near new. I did those ones 23 years ago and they’re still nice to this day.

If you’ve already damaged your originals, I’d start looking for a parts car to get them from. And those of you who have parts cars and are removing glass, keep in mind there is/will be value in the gaskets not just the glass.

For 57 and later Mopars, all the repro windshield and back glass gaskets are poor quality. For your 300G, you will have to reuse your gaskets.
