I usually lay a nice thick blanket on the bonnet and then sit between the seats with my feet in the top corners of the screen and push evenly with both feet.
After you've done a few like this you can remove a screen in 30 seconds or less.

This only works for screens with NO cracks. If screen has a crack you WILL have to replace it. Chips may or may not be a problem.

I have seen a few people roll it and it popped the screen without damaging it, perhaps give that a try :)

+1 on pushing it out with your feet. Works pretty well actually.

However if it's the glued in type you have to cut it out (wire is the easiest, although you can use the pneumatic cutting tool thing.. personally I think the cheese wire is easier.)
