Bonded Window Removal

[OllieGBR]

Has anyone attempted to remove a bonded window?
I'm really not happy with one of my windows and just wondering if it can be removed or replaced easily enough? Or should I finally let someone who know's what they're doing take this bit on? If the latter, are there companies who will remove bonded glass from the side of a van?

Cheers
Ollie.

Is it toughened or laminated?

It's a side window, I assume toughened.

Info on YouTube. Most use cheese wire technique.

Is it too risky to attack with an automatic centre punch?

Thanks, watched some Youtube options - most of these are being taken from older vans with little care on paintwork.
I'm jut wondering if anyone on the forum has attempted it and is it worth doing it yourself

Centre punch will break the window, you need a hook blade/ cheese wire to cut through the bondo to have any chance at reusing the window.
