If you've never had experience doing this, I would just bring it to a local glass shop. When I swapped from solid quarter windows to the sliders, the local glass shop only charged me 35 for the job.

The easiest way for that is to remove the inner plastic panels around the window then take a propane can with the torch nozel on it and melt out the adheasive... They will clean it up and put a new gasket on it when they install it.

not smart that the uneven heat will brake the glass

I've done it plenty of times, and that's also how most wrecking yards remove it. (Where I learned how)... You obviously have to be careful, but there is no prob melting the glue.

If you have access to a heat gun, use it to melt the adhesive from the inside after removing the plastic panels, as rlith said. I did that on my 95 2 door to replace my rear quarter window, worked like a charm. used an awl to score the adhesive as i worked the heat gun, and duct taped large strips to the outside to keep it from falling to the ground as I was working alone. I also had a large pile of newspapers crumpled up underneath the window, but the tape worked fine.

well it took me 1 hour and ahalf to do the side in the shade and 45 min to do the side in the sun so i guess i shouldda brougt a propane torach with me however a heat gun would work at home but not in a junk yard where do you plug it in??????

I ran an extension cord to the outside outlet, no problem. Our pick n' pulls in chicagoland are pretty well organized...
