Wait until you try the rear door lol. I saw this on Wednesday on my car. It's a lot more fettling to get it back in and saying it's the reverse, whilst true, doesn't prepare you for the fiddliy pain in the derriere it is to get it right!

my personal recommendation would be to get the bottom bits in either side of the glass and put the window up slowly, then back down again, to drag it down - the motor does the hard work, and draws the rubber in.
