Default fox convertible 1/4 window guide bushings?

Do the convertible 1/4 windows use these guide bushings? If so i just need one per window right? I know the convertible front windows just have the one bushing per door and it is a different one than this.

I was wondering the same. I need to open it up to see if I need to change the bushings or the window motor. I just don't see how to open up that door paneling....

I got the panels off I replaced the 3 bushings in the motors. I just need to know the easiest way to go about removing the guide rod? To replace the bushing on it.
