You should be able to remove the inner window with just one small piece removed by drilling out rivets and this may not be on all windows. The rubber seal is placed around the plate window and then the window is held in place by the channel and the seal is pushed against the outer plate window. Should be pretty easy to do. The new inner window with the seal around it fits in place where the old one comes out. There may be one riveted plate that might have to be removed on some inner glass but that is really easy to drill out the rivets and then just pull new ones in. You should only need to remove one piece off one side and pull the glass up out of the channel.
Basically just remove only what is necessary to remove the old window and then put the new plate in with new seal just like you removed the old plate
The first photo shows the finish with the new inner glass in place with the rubber seal and window in fixed channel
The second photo shows the inner glass out and the channel that secure it in place
The third photo shows everything out including a small plate that is riveted
