The side window update wasn't too hard to do once there was a decision about "what" should be the end result.
-
The expanding foam was trimmed up to match the window frame and Gorilla tape lines the edges.
-
The overall window was shaved down about 1/4 along upward slope and then along entire top. This allowed room between the side-glass and the window frame once a proper-type rubber seal to be installed. Six plastic screws with plastic wingnuts now secure the side windows. Even with a fair amount of water pressure from a garden hose, the windows don't leak. Loosening the wingnuts makes removing the entire window in about 25 seconds. The window easily fits in the storage tray behind the seats - vent galore!

As luck would have it - the smaller rear side windows looked out of place since they lacked this exposed rubber seal....
