I used a bicycle brake cable and mole grips either side. Prised a gap to get the cable through in one corner then a sawing action with a helper inside the car. Worked a treat,

Easiest is with a Stanley Knife.
If you use a cable/wire you risk to damage Trim or Headlining where it arrives inside the Car :wink:

Don't know if this is the same kind of bonding for the Plus2.....
When I restored my 73 Europa Special in 1984, the bonded in screen had 2 small wires that you attached to a battery - that heated up the rubber bonding and it was easily pushed out. Put the new "rubber" in attach wires to battery and when warm/sticky enough put the screen back in.
