Default Rock stuck between window and door trim

I have a rock that is stuck in the door window seal/weather stripping that is causing vertical scratches on my window if I open and close it. Does anyone have experience clearing debris on from this area? Is there an easy way to access and clean out this compartment? Thanks

I suspect you can use a thin strip of metal similar to a Slim Jim to clear that rock.

I followed the TSB to get the weather stripping removed. Used compressed air and a vacuum to get the inside seal. It fixed the problem. Now time to deal with the scratches. I recommend actually taken the weather stripping out as its super easy to take in and out. Fishing out the rock, I think is harder.
