Even with a good cordless nibbler and patience it's a PITA. Tales of piano
string may be valid, but you better have a good set of gloves, even more
patience, and maybe a heat gun too.

I've been using(not just personally) safelite to do windshields for years at
about 250-350 bucks, and for the peace of mind regarding the weather-seal
especially, debt-money well spent.

*           Groundhog Day 2011*
This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union address occur on
the same day.
"It is an ironic juxtaposition of events: one involves a meaningless ritual
in which we look to a creature of little intelligence for prognostication
while the other involves a groundhog." -A.A.
