Default Replace rubber moldings on back of the cab

I have a 2020 F150 and there are rubber like moldings on each side of the rear of the cab roof. They have cracked and the front section broke off of one, from the Florida Sun and I ordered new pieces. Has anyone ever replaced them, and if so, what is involved?

riveted in place and removal of the rear window is required -- that is if its anything like the 12th gen which is likely

I looked closely and they are riveted in place.. There is a rivet at the edge of the rear window molding and one on the roof. Since the moldings are cracked it looks like they will pull off easily. Would it work to use an adhesive caulk like the Quad brand caulk to hold them in place or some other brand of adhesive?
I could drill out the rivet on the roof, and use another rivet or screw, but am reluctant to do that. It looks like the rear edge can slip under the window and be held in place, especially if I add some adhesive caulk.

Glass does have to come out. There's a second rivet behind the glass.

I was hoping I could install them without removing the glass.
