To be precise, to replace the quarter panel, the rear glass and rear upper glass needs to be removed along with the quarter garnish. Then drilling out a ton of spot welds on each side, then prying them away from the c pillars and other areas as well as making a few cuts. The best and cheapest way seems to be getting a patch panel from a parts car and cutting out the old and replacing with fresh metal that you can get at the backside and ensure no rust or possibly grind/wire wheel and treat any possible slight rust before the patch panel is put on.
