Default S Type Back Glass Replacement Advice Needed

I am thinking of buying a second STR with a busted back window (the big one opposite the windshield). It looks like the window is glued into a rubber gasket. Does anyone have any idea how to DIY the back window? I have a good cheap source for a window but would like to replace it myself if possible.

Removal and replacement procedure for the backlight (back windshield?) is outlined in the Workshop Manual under Body and Paint. If you do not have the Workshop Manual, it is available from several vendors on eBay or via the Internet.

Thanks, that is a great idea. I hadn't thought of bodywork being in the manual.
