Firebird Tail Panel

[slyck68]

I'm contemplating yanking out the original rear tail light panel on my 68 Firebird. However, I'm a novice at this kind of job and was wondering if it is something I should even attempt to tackle on my own? I've done some research and it appears the bulk of it is held in with spot welds to the inner tail panel and along the bottom flange. Other than that, how are the sides of the panel held in place (where it connects to the rear quarter panels)? Thanks guys!
