Anyone know how to take out windows without cutting the rubber seals and waisting them? Thanx.

Start on the inside top. Push the rubber down and tuck it behind the steel using blunt, rounded screwdrivers or those white plastic sticks glass shops use. Work your way along the top and down the side. When you get near the bottom corners the glass will push out.

how much is a seal?.... now how much is a window if u break it?...

If the seals are new then you can push on the window at the top and it will pop out with a little help. If the seals are a couple of years old or older they will be harder and you don't want to break the window. We have a 1977 and the seals from OeVeeDub fit really well. Also new seals are much easier to put back in.
