Replacing windows

a friend of mine totalled his s-10, and we came across another that, oddly enough, if he combines all the good parts from each truck he has a good truck (bed from one, cab from other, etc). Problem is that the truck with the good frame and cab had it's windows bashed out and the totalled truck has good windows, so how do i go about getting the windows out of the back (sliding) and doors? I've got the door panel off one side and i took the two screws that attach the window to the rolling mechanism so the window slides freely up and down on the track. I noticed the top trailing edge of the window has a notch about 2.5" down. How do i go about getting the window out of the track?

and i have no idea whatsoever about getting the back windows out...any serious help will be greatly appreciated...but i don't want "throw a brick through it"

alright, since no one helped me, i eventually figured it out by myself. On the trailing edge of the window near the top is a plastic clip that locks into the channel. This clip has a deal that goes through the window and clicks into itself, you pop that latched clip off, then do the same for the clip in the front bottom edge of the window and rotate the window so it comes out of the door.
