I seem to remember that the part that is trapped under the lower edge of the windscreen is only pushed up into a V or U groove, and the suggested plan for removing it is to use something like a cable tie loop, and start at each outer end point and pull it down and out of the V or U groove, after one side has started to come free, move across to the other end of the plastic cover and repeat there.
Edit:- I've not yet needed to try that out and I think that I would only try doing that if and when I also need to get into that area!
I'm sure that Google would hand out some info/videos.
