Would of thought it would be easy but if you've got a boot spoiler on then it might be hard...

They're bonded in. I wouldn't like to attempt it.
You'll need to get some like cheese wire in between the glass and boot to cut the adhesive. The rubber seal is fitted round the new glass and bonded onto the boot with the glass. The seal can't be fitted after the glass.

Any auto windscreen company. I got a local company to change my rear screen for £70. Came to my work and did it within the hour.
They also changed my windscreen for £70 also, Even fitted a top tint screen too.

You need the tool for removing the bond and you need to be fairly skilled in using it to ensure that you don't scratch the paint around the window.
