Can the windscreen frame be removed?
Can the frame/glass be removed from the vehicle without lifting the roof off? 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

Yes, you need to slacken off the hardtop sides to tub fixings though, and block the roof up a couple of inches. Easy enough though

Thats great, Thanks. The reason is I have a leak through the seal, along the top of the bulkhead, and don't seem to be able to seal it externally.

Considering lifting the screen frame out and fitting a new seal with some additional sealer to help it. 2021 Defender 110 X-Dynamic HSE D300 MHEV

Just a quickie, are you certain its not leaking from the windscreen seal, some I have found go to leak on the bottom corners of the frame. If you lift the seal a bit on the corners you may find where the lip of the frame is joined in the corners there's a 'step' in it. If there is they widdle in through there like nothing on earth. I'll try and take a photo of one to clarify what i mean a bit
