Default Conv. plastic window replacement

I need to replace the rear plastic window in my '67 firebird vert. I see they offer them in the CI catalog for about $60 with the words "easy installation" used in the description. I'm dubious of this being an "easy installation", but was hoping someone would offer their thoughts or advice on the matter. Upholstery shops I've talked to estimated $250-300. Could I do this myself and save some cash, or would it just wind up being an exercise in frustration, and a waste of a $60 window?

Thanks, Bruce

Thanks, I think I'll give it a try. I suppose the worst that can happen is I'll be out $60 and some time.
