How much does Safelight charge?
I’ve been driving a Volvo long before anyone ever paid me to drive one.
That's probably because I've been driving one since 2015 and nobody has offered to pay me yet.
1998 v70, non turbo, FWD, base model, on the road from April 2nd, 2015 to July 26, 2023.

When I asked a few shops around me, they said they would not install used windshield glass on my car. Be sure you have an installer before you pull a used windshield.

I cut out quarter panel glass for my wagon and fully expect a local installer to put it in for me. I removed it with only a spackle knife! I'd recommend getting a long flexible knife to cut the glue holding the glass. Attaching a blade to a power tool might cause the glass to shatter, so stick with a hand tool. With a sharp and flexible blade, I bet you could pull it. However, moving it would be a two person job.
