Even if I could install a new one myself it would save a bundle.

If the thing has been fogged for years there's a good chance that the
glass has become etched and will never look quite right again.

You're not installing a 5' x 6' insulated lite by yourself unless you
are interested to see if arterial blood really does spurt out. That's
too big and heavy for one person to handle.

You didn't say what sort of frame the unit is in. Some are easier to
remove and replace than others. First things first - call a local
insulated glass manufacturer and get a price for the unit by itself.
Most likely they won't be willing to give you an installed price over
the phone, but it can't hurt to ask.
