Make sure you support the glass adequately....that puppy is HEAVY. Doesn't matter top or bottom first....compress the clip, and off she comes. Takes about 15 seconds per side.

I asked wife to hold it up for me.( big mistake) I took 2 two by fours and put rags on them to hold it up till I got weather stripping thru the struts
