Do I need to remove the rear windshield to remove the trim retaining clips?

Yes. They're held in either with screws or big-*** staples.

I thought that was the case. I have never removed a windshield before but I'm not afraid to tackle it. Any good tips as to how to remove it safely? My wife would be pissed if I broke it, it's her car after all.

I believe these are installed with a rubber gasket and don't know if it will survive the removal process. Get a line on a replacement as well.

It is held in by a gasket. Best bet is to source a new gasket in advance the cut it out carefully. It’s doable but tough.

Thanks, I'll see if we can round one up.
Gaskets are available new - check with your local autoglass guy and places like Steele Rubber.

Ross is correct these gaskets are easy to get. Warning though, the easy part is taking it out. I would seriously recommend you check sites out on how to install. The windows will crack very easily so take your time reinstalling and don’t force it. Good luck. By the way these windows aren’t overly expensive.

Thank you! That is what I am scared of, breaking it and not being able to find a replacement... I think I will call a glass place before we get started

It says 1966, but it should be the same for 65.

I am sure you will find one. Found the front windshield for my 66 without much problems and it was reasonably priced.
