How to remove windows/windshield/doors...

hey all, ive got a 92 gxe parts car and i wanted to remove some things from it. The whole interior is gutted, lights too. I started removing the rear windshield by taking the trim off and using a box knife but it isnt seemign to do the trick, i need something better, i heard piano wire works but i dont know. Does anyone have any tips for me?

Also the side windows, do i just unbolt the motor and regulator and angle it from the top out? For the doors, do I disconnect the harnesses inside them and then fish the harness out of the door then unbolt it and take it off?

One more thing, for the keypad on the doors, do the wires from them run to a control box of some sort that is its own unit, so can I remove all components relating to the keypad and maybe use the stuff on a custom project or whatnot?

WINDSHIELDS= yes the auto parts stores have a wire to "saw thru the seals" poke one end of wire thru and saw
WINDOW REGULATORS=lower window+remove 2 "glass to regulator bolts",prop window up,unbolt 2 upper and 2 lower regulator mount bolts,turn and wiggle reg.
out ,remove electrical plug(the motor and regulator come out together)
DOORS=put 2 jacks or stands under the door with rags to protect paint,
first use a screwdriver and hammer to bang out the pins that hold the door "holder levers"(the small slidy thing in between the 2 hinges ,unbolt 2 bolts on both hinges i did car side bolts to leave the hinges on the doors(the front door car side bolts are behind the fenders take those fenders off first)pull door away a little ,gently pull out electrical plugs enough to un clip them
