Haha, your not alone man, I broke my rear glass a few weeks ago trying to remove it. The glass guys make it look way too easy! I managed to get the front out though. Having the glass removal tools definately helped. Cheers for doing it yourself

the AMS moustache bar eliminator comes with solid diff mounts... will line up perfectly with the AMS provided ones.
