Hey james
Thats the fun part. What works for me is don't bolt the window track in just lay it in the bottom first. Then with another person set the glass in and start the bottom roller in track then side rollers. Once window is in track start top bolts but leave loose.Then wiggle window crank roller onto window slider and install 4 bolts to crank. Glass is now in place and you finish installing rest of bolts and adjust glass as needed.
Much easier with four hands. Hope this helps.

Talking Generally...

easier with two people. Remove all bolts from track. Install glass into track and line up and replace tracks. Simplest way we've found. No wrestling. Good luck. Ron

Did mine myself, even made-up some rollers till I got my replacements (had the 1/4 glasses in/out a coupla times). My convertible is a weee bit easier than my HT though! Take your time, you can do it. Good luck
