I'm glad you guys added your input. You've explained it pretty well. That's why I enjoy this site as much as I do.
I hope you find all the info from these guys useful, Ed.
 
Thanks everyone for all the info. Lots of help. We only have one glass shop in our small town and I don't want to trust a non replaceable part to them. I'll take my time and a sharp blade of some kind to try to get the trim off. Then I may take the car to them to remove the glass. Thanks again everyone.
 
Might want to rethink that.

Typically, the molding is not just flat, it is more of a "T", "[" (sideways U) or "L" profile, with the one leg embedded in the urethane. By attempting to remove the molding from the glass with the glass still in the car, you will be cutting that leg off, rendering them not reusable. Best to cut the urethane as close to the pinchweld as possible, and remove the moldings from the glass after it's out.

Glass installers deal with these kinds of moldings daily, and should have a good idea of how to proceed.

Personally, unless you're an absolute stickler for "factory correct", the aluminum moldings are better looking and easier to work with.
