Soft top back window zipper stuck

[ErnDog]

Good morning,
The back window zipper was put on slightly incorrect which caused a gap. I can’t get the zipper all the way off. It’s about 2-3 teeth higher than the bottom. Any ideas or help?
thanks.

Lubricate the area with soap or wax or something else slippery, Tug and pray.

Using a small flathead screwdriver, insert it into the female large end of the zipper jaw on the high end. The high end being the end where there are teeth exposed, the low end being the side of the zipper which has already reached its end.
Twist the screwdriver so that it opens the zipper jaw a touch and, at the same time, try to pull the zipper tab down to meet the other side- that 2-3 tooth difference

Thank you, arthritis sucks.
