Removing glass mount cellular antenna

So the previous owner of my vehicle installed an aftermarket cell phone kit. I got most of it pulled out yesterday and all that is left is to get that damn antenna off my windshield (it's in the top right corner). It looks like it's some kind of epoxy holding it on and so far the only advice I can find on the Internet is to cut it off - I'm thinking with a razor scraper or something like that.

Has anyone done this before? Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jeff

Try a hair dryer before the razor scraper. You might also try some fishing line after it is heated by the dryer.

Try chilling the adhesive. Most decrease the hold with lowering temperatures.
