One the first one that I already removed I used a 4" stiff blade putty knife. That worked very well and I got it out with no damage. Looks like finding the spine and gasket shouldn't be a problem and I'll use butyl to reinstall the frames if I decide to go the rebuild route.

After removing the screws, tap the machete down along the top edge between the frame and the cabin top and then gently pry. I wish I had used that method on all four frames. The old spline was shot and I couldn't find a replacement so I used 4200 to seal the new lenses into the frames. It really helped having the frames out of the boat and on a horizontal surface to do this. So far so good.
