Rear and quarter window replacement

Last winter I attempted to raise the soft top in 20 degree weather. Didn't think about the plastic windows until I heard them crack. The soft top is in excellant condition, but looks a bit ratty with cracked windows. I saw a soft window replacement on e-bay. I thought once you messed up the windows, you had to replace the whole top. Has anyone purchased the plastic windows and replaced/had them replaced? What's involved?

I bought a set of factory windows on e-bay. The top needs to come off to put them in, and the total labor charge was going to be $500. Bottom line is that the cost is very close to installing a whole new aftermarket top.

Thanks Chuck. I thought it would not be an easy job to sew them in.
