A hammer would do the trick. It wouldn't mess up the rubber. The windows on the other hand....

I would think to lube the inside of the window seal with wd40 or something and just kick it out. Make sure someone's on the other side catching it. Wink I don't know where your located but doing it on a really hot day would prabably be best.

If the rubbers are old and hard, that is about it.
The rubbers can be purchased cheaper than the glass.

Yes, if you want the headliner to be right.
It is installed from the factory before the glass is installed.
