In stead of removing the window(which might not be possible depending on how the door is built), I suggest just taking the whole door frame out.
To save adding another post, if your door frame is 36" wide, it would be a tight squeeze but if you tipped the tank on its side you might get away without removing anything. Obviously the more room you have the better, but just another option...

The entire door-frame inside edge to edge is 50 inches. Hoping not to have to remove the entire frame and only remove the windowed section... but plan B is removing and replacing the whole thing as you suggest.

What I'm getting at is if it's a pre-assembled door and side light (Window) by removing the window you will essentially destroy the whole thing. Most doors like that with sidelights aren't designed to be put back together...

Well, if we cannot simply remove the side-light frame, then yeah we won't have a choice and will have to remove the whole frame. In which case I'll have to make sure my partner isn't home to see what we're doing LoL.
