Need Guidance on Rear Window Frame

On Saturday I was in the middle of replacing the rear window rubber seal (996 545 521 03) on my 1999 C2 coupe and I accidently broke :oops: the metal frame that wraps around both sides and the top of the rear window. The local dealership has the replacment metal frame (I'm picking it up tomorrow) but I need to know if there is anything unusual about replacing the frame? Is there a TSP or set of instructions that details the step by step procedure? Anyone accomplished this DIY before?

Thanks, :cheers:

Here is all the service manual says:

Place surrounding section on the rear window and press cover trim into groove of the surrounding section.
There is a also a note to be careful and not damage the trim. ;)

With a lot of patience, the old frame came off and the new frame and rubber seal went on just fine. The entire job took one hour.
