You'll need to locate a new rivet for the front quarterlight hinge; Robin Eames tells me has sourced an appropriate pin, but hasn't yet told me from where.
You'll find the rear seals are a very tight friction fit and difficult to remove; one tip is to wear rubber gloves to aid friction between your palms and the glass whilst clamping the glass between your palms and pushing it out.
