Cab hardtop update and dumb question

For those of you with full cages: how in the hell do you install your rear windows? Is there a magic trick, or is it all about suffering and contortion? I removed the inner lip of my test window seals in order to make the cut-sand-test-cuss cycle a little faster. I picked up another set at the junkyard today, and I want to install them for real. I could install them in the top off of the car, then install the top, but I did that once already and it's a recipe for a hernia.

As to progress, I've had to do all kinds of work to get this thing usable, and I'm still not done. More on that later. John Walker has graciously helped by taking some pix of his cab hardtop for me to crib from, and I've made a couple trips out to the junkyard to take measurements and pix of coupes, cabs, and targas. I've put about 130 hours into this thing so far - I guess that's an up-side to being unemployed

OK, obviously my reading comprehension or retention is low or something. Unemployed? I don't remember hearing about that. Well, that sucks to hear. Good luck, Thom!

A valuable UNIX guru like you will be grepping and scripting stuff in no time.

PS The tail lights look great.
