Exclamation Side window glass how to

I need to remove the big side window glass from a suburban that I just bought and install them in another suburban that I have. What is the best way to remove them along with the seal, anyone has done it.

Thanks

The rubber seal is usually petrified, so the best way I have found is to use a box cutter knife and carve the rubber seal away from the glass.

The best way I have found is by using some WD 40 and about 4-5 putty knives and 4-5 flat screw drivers. And work a little at a time and begin in the etiher top corner.
