It is. I have taken several out. You have a couple of screws to remove in the door jamb and a few bolts to undo under the door panel. You should be able to pull it right out after that

Yes there is a track (division track as it is often called) that the large window slides in at front.

I think you can just loosen the rear door glass channel and move it over enough to get the vent window out.

Also the screws in the door jamb are sometimes difficult to remove. Best to use an impact screw driver or do like I did and use a hammer........

If you hit the screwdriver with hammer and at same time turn it with hand (need a very firm grip) just dont miss and hit your hand or you could use channel locks to turn it maybe.
