Default Rear cargo glass?

How do or how has the rear cargo sidelight glass been removed. Besides a BFH. I'd like to keep it. I have the common rust areas I'd like to fix, and would like to remove the glass. It looks like the rubber seal is the only thing holding it in.

It is one piece. I swapped all my glass to tint, the rear glass can easily be removed by gently prying the seal out from the inside out starting in a lower corner.

Take your time, dont put too much pressure on it and you should be fine.

Thanks, I started to just pull the seal away and push the glass out. Looks to be pretty easy. Mine are alread tinted, but not factory. PO di it and it s a bad job I my redo them. My to do list seems to never go away. Wish I could just put it away for a couple months and do it all.
