Re the rear window: I recently removed my perfectly good rear window, to install a quiet dual-pane assembly being marketed by Ron Wade of Seattle WA. Removal was even easier than the windshield. The rear window is held in by a rubber flap over a short piece of body metal surrounding the entire rear window opening. A small amount of careful prying at the lower corner of the drivers side resulted in the whole window assembly moving slightly. I have my mostly-useless rear quarter windows removed, so it was simple to reach in and using the palm of my hand, to push & work the assembly into the cockpit. Be prepared: the assembly weighs 10 lbs and is 5 ft long. Its not easy for a single person to manipulate the thing without breaking it. Full story including test results in the August POCA newsletter.

Did you notice any difference with the dual pane window and how much was it?
