I've done several of these and never had to resort to a hammer or mallet.
Use plenty of soapy water or windex to keep the rubber molding channel wet.
Start the project at nearly the centerline of the bottom of the windshield. If
you're right handed as I am, I find it easier to work from the centerline
bottom towards the driver side then up the windscreen post and over the top of
the
windscreen towards the passenger side. At that point, you may want to stand
on the passenger side to complete the job. Take your time - keep the channel
wet and feed the molding into the channel at a steady pace pressing down with
your fingers. It also helps if you're doing this on a warm day so if you live
in a northern climate, better get to it soon or plan to do it in a heated
space!
