Replacing broken window in French door

I have one broken window pane in an oldish wooden French door that leads outside.

The pane is about 6" x 12" and is held in by wood slats on inside and outside (no glazing).

Apparently I need to take the door apart somewhat to get a new pane in. How do I do this?

I found an old thread on this question that said French doors have a removable molding stop on one side, but I can't find it.

I'm moving next week so I need to get this fixed, and glass places in town want $150 to come do it.

Thanks.

Take it to them for the day, making sure they know it's an entry door.

For DYI, we'd be starting at square-one, it seems.

Remove one of the wood slats, pull the nails or drive them through the slat ..Slide the slat out then the remaining three should be removed with ease . Remove the broken pane and replace with new one of the same thickness then replace the retaining slats.
