Cut the gasket with a box knife. Just be really careful. You don't need a trip to the E.R.

I usually have good luck in removing the out w/s by removing the rubber too but it is faster to cut the rubber.
I guess I`m just too cheap to do cut the w/s rubber out if the it`s even remotely reuseable though, just way too many trucks to spend any extra money on......
