The two rear quaters windows are just three T20 torx bits that hold them in.
The rear window will be tougher. Ive never changed one, just changed the whole tailgate instead lol.

the two side rear windows take about 5 mins each side at most to change, just 3 torx screws holding them in,
unsure of the rear, only way i know of is by changing full boot, but might be another way.

Are you having to pay for these windows you can get?
If not, just take the side windows for free, then pay a pro to do the rear to match.
Should only cost max £30.
