I don't have a place to cut the glass, but you do know only the windshield can be cut. The rest are tempered and can not be cut.

The suicide doors, they are harder than the top chop in my opinion, been there done that. But it all is very do-able.

I'll try to find a web site I saw once where a guy did a super job of documenting the process.
