Default HELP - Side Glass Replacement

Can anyone offer some advice on replacing the passenger side glass on my '02 coupe? I have some scratches that bother me so am finally going to put in new one. I've had the door panel off before so am familiar with that .... but are there any tips/tricks to getting the glass out? Would like to have some idea of what I'm in for before I start. Thanks in advance!

Also, I'm considering buying one out of a Z06, - is it the same part as for a coupe?

I can't speak to the removal of the glass but have you used a polish on it?

Thnaks for the reply and link! So the glass just unbolts without taking the regulator assembly out? Looks and sounds simple. Have you done this before?
