Is there a way to remove frit/ black dots from automotive glass?

First about the problem. When the previous owner was doing a windshield replacement, he somehow forgot about the existence of rain sensor in this car, and bought the glass that doesn't have a cutout for it. Now the sensor is unusable and permanently tells the car its heavy rain. I had to unplug it to make wipers work at least in normal speeds. I'd like to know if there's a way to remove the frit or somehow make the sensor work though them without replacing the expensive glass. Any suggestions? I'd consider moving the sensor downwards but I doubt the wire is long enough.
