Use a sabersaw (jigsaw) with variable speed control, a relatively low speed as to not remelt and bond behind the blade after you cut it. Play with various types of blades. What worked for me is a fairly course blade and slow. When I redid my windshield this worked well. I did have one small crack about an inch lond that I lived with.
