1/4 window removal - very easy. I had my doubts about this, too, until I did it. Lift deck lid, one hand outside window, one hand inside window, peel/flex rubber on the inside of the gasket so you know it is loose all the way around on the inside edge. It will be tight, just make sure it is not glued or whatever. At the top corner of the window, closest to the cabin, on the inside of the window see if you can fold the corner of the gasket away from the body frame and while holding gasket back push that corner of the window outwards. It should move without massive grunting or groaning. Once it gets started, it is just a matter of slowly pushing, folding the inside rubber back as much as you can, and pushing some more. I was surprised how easy it was. You will make sure to keep one hand on the outside to catch the thing, okay? Clean up any rust and things when you get it out, gently pull/pry the metal chrome out of the slot in the gasket, remove the glass from the gasket, armor all or whatever the rubber,put the metal back in the rubber, reinstall the gasket and window cleaning will be easier. Electrical work on the other side, once you remove the engine cover side piece, becomes MUCH easier, also. Relax, you'll do fine. Larry
