Default How to remove quarter glass?

Does anyone know how the rear quarter glass in the 5th gens is attached? I'm looking into what it's going to take to cut out my rusty quarter panel and the only thing I'm not sure of is how to remove the rear quarter glass. It looks like it's all one piece. Anyone know how to remove it?

My stepson and I contemplated that the other day.

If im not mistaken,
Once you strip some of the interior around it...
I believe theres like for screws that hold in place...
Remove those and it should just about fallout...

Thanks for the idea. I might have to tear into some of my interior and take a look. Hopefully it's as easy as a few screws.

That sounds sucky. What kind of glue would I need to put it back in?

I have been waanting to put new rubber around my quarter windows. I did see a video of someone doing that on another car. A tip they showed was to wrap string in the rubber groove and then peel it out as the lip of the rubber seal goes into the surrounding lip. Hope it helps.
