There is a 3/8 rod under the outer door skin about 2 inches down and runs most the length of the door. The door loses some rigidity when you take the vent window out. I have jotted down about 20 points that the instructions don't tell you about, if anybody wants to do this, it will be helpful.
Any chance you did a step by step photo log of your door glass conversion?
I ask because there is a Tips and Tricks/How To section on this site and that would be an excellent resource IMO.

I want to do this conversion, but I dont want power windows....
