side/rear windows are 10 times easier to remove than windshields.
Follow same procedure .... very hard to break them.

I've even removed rear/ side windows without lube or tools (in a
junkyard), lust lie down on the seat and press out with your
feet...(but lube and reliving pressure on the inside of the seals
helps a lot).

If your seals are shot, best to order from list vendors.
http://www.Van-cafe.com has nice seals, I'm sure other vendors do as
well, but they don't have free cookies!
