Hello Sorry to hear about your window. You could try to find a complete tailgate at the scrap yard with good window and fit it onto your car and a lot easier than trying to remove glass. To remove glass I would remove all interior trim on tailgate remove chrome trim from exterior glass and plastic side pieces remove as many of fixing clips as possible, disconect wiring to wiper and heater. Then with a helper push a wire through gap between glass and body and then working on either side with helper pull wire using pliers or molegrips around frame to release glass from the sealant. Prepare your car for installing window. Use suitable sealant (which I'm sure someone can advise) refit all window trim pieces using new or used window trim & clips. Connect wiper & heater wires then re install tailgate trim. Ive never done this but this is how I would go about it. Hope it's of help. Good luck James.
