Yes, they're very easy to remove.

Turn on your heater full blast for 15 minutes expands the windshield enough to get a thin object like a credit card under it and break suction.

Can also carry extremely small bits made for drilling glass and just put one in the middle of each cup and break suction, then immediately fill hole with epoxy resin. Problem solved.

Iirc, they also took the SIM card out, put it in a phone and got a free mobile hotspot out of it.

A very, very slow red cap hotspot

Great for sending telegrams and surfing Gopher.
