Lightly press the drill bit against the windshield No. 3 outside moulding clip to drill off the windshield No. 3 outside moulding clip flanges, and remove the 5 windshield No. 3 outside moulding clips.

Prying the windshield No. 3 outside moulding clips with the drill may damage the windshield No. 3 outside moulding clip installation holes or drill bit.
Be careful of the drilled windshield No. 3 outside moulding clips, as they may be hot.
Using a vacuum cleaner, remove the windshield No. 3 outside moulding clip fragments and shavings from the drilled areas.
