850 window replacement 850

hello,
i'm trying to replace the front passenger-side window that got smashed out on my 97 850 T5-R.
The door panel came off without any problem, but now I'm stuck. I can't figure out how/where to put the glass in. (I got the glass from a junkyard; it has the two brackets attached to the bottom.)
Any advice you could provide or point me to would really be appreciated.
thanks

The Haynes manual is anal, but does describe R&R in Chapter 11. Besides removing the regulator and the inner weatherstrip at the top of the window, the glass gets lowered in from the top - forward edge first.
