Is it easy to convert a solid rear window, to one that opens? Is there a forum for it somewhere, the search function didn't really bring up anything?

He installed one on his truck, I don't think he mentioned were he bought it from but i'm sure if you google it something will come up.
The one I installed recently was in a 97 centurion converted truck. It looks as if it was installed by them back when new. When I got it home it was sluggish, I ended up finding that the upper window track was binding slightly due to it moving within the frame. This mostly get attributed to the seals drying up over time/dirt and stuff getting in the track. Cleaned it all, lubricated everything with some rubber treatment and it slides smooth as butter.You buy them straight from C.R. Laurence I guess, or probably plenty of aftermarket dealers: http://www.crlaurence.com/apps/cont...rlaurence.com/adv/Auto_Products/index_us.html
My '92 had one when I bought it. It worked OK for a few years, dunno how old it was already when I got the truck. After some time it got very sluggish when trying to close the window. I did like it, though. Real nice for an extended or crew cab. Totally unnecessary for a regular cab.
On Amazon for about $450 FWIW...
