you will need the window seals from the donor car and you will need to buy some speed clips for the bolts at the rear to fit into

i have recently fitted these to my iS, as my staffy was getting a bit hot in the back on that warmish day we had earlier this year. they are fairly easy to remove. the rear catch is held on to the c pillar by two cross-head screws under the plastic cover (be sure to take two clips under the headlining that the screws screw in to) and the front is held by two 8mm nuts under the circular "grommets" on the b pillar (behind the seat belt). you will need a very small drive socket! refitting is a reversal of removal, except for being a lot more careful on your own car, e.g. when you peel back the headlining to fit the clips to the c pillar. :)
