Default rear side window removal (or at least trim)

I've decided I'm going to paint my blazer. It will be my first time doing it, but there's large areas of paint that's chipped off, with some rust starting, random small chips, and random dings and dents. I figure an amateur paint job will look better than big rust holes that will be next, and soon. The big question I have now is how to remove the rear side windows. Are these glued on like windshields these days? If that's the case can you remove the trim that's around the windows? I guess that's all I really need to do any way. I'm planning on painting the trim, there is also some rust going up under the trim that i need to take care of. Thanks for the help. It's a '99 2 door ZR2 by the way.

Well that's a helpful link, but i wanted to know if its removable. There's rust that starts below it and goes up under it. I want to remove it so i can take care of the rust. It's just surface rust from paint that's chipped off, so it not going to be allot of work, but I need to take care of it.
