Replacing Sliding Rear Window Advice Wanted - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I want to replace my new sliding rear window (so I can sell it) with a solid tinted rear window I got off Ebay. Current sliding window has a new seal. I kinda know this was a topic way in the past. Are there some quick tips written on how to do this myself without having to go to a glass shop?

roll the lip out from the inside starting at the corner while pushing out on the glass. Have someone outside just in case it falls. might need 2 sets of hands, one to roll and push and one to push to keep pressure on it.
