Getting a lot of wind noise from the vents. I wanted to replace the weatherstripping but it looks difficult. How do you take the vent windows out and are they easy to replace? Any advise would help.

The FAQ section has some great info. I have done this on both of my trucks now. It is much easier to use pop rivets instead of using the ones sold with the "punch" style.
