You change over by selling those 1968 doors and getting the correct 1969 doors. The 1968 hardtops and convertibles used vent windows, 69 hardtops and convertibles did not.

It IS possible to strip out the vent window, rework the door, and install the tracks for the 69 windows. You're better off getting the correct doors.
