With some encouragement, yes. Plastic tools are a must.

I've found getting the new glass in to be the most challenging part. However the 1/16 glass setting tape is too thick (which works very well for door windows). I'm going to order some 1/32 and 3/64 as I'm sure one will fit better.

Just to update, for the vent window, 1/32 glass tape worked (3/64 may have also worked but 1/16 was too thick). The stuff LMC sells for the door window is 1/16 (works well for door window to door window track) but they do not appear to have a separate glass tape for the vent window.

I had a classic auto glass place do mine. I could only find rolls of the stuff for sixty bucks a roll, and the glass place charged me fifty five for the tape and labour to do the vent windows and they came out beautifully.
