Like others have said, easy job.  Here's the step by step.

Cut new lenses from smoked Lexan (polycarbonate) using old lenses as
template

Mix a bowl of soapy water and make a "push" stick.  A cut off piece of yard
stick or similar will work.

Clean the old gasket off the aluminum frame completely.

Install the new EPDM gasket from Lowes or Home Depot (Frost King D gasket
V25BK or MD Building Products #1025) with joint at top

Place lens.

Wet spline with soapy water and start spline at top center.  Work it around
frame using soapy water and push stick,

Pop a beer.
