Rear Sliding Glass

[Lindsay]

My rear slider (made of plexiglass) has a pretty noticeable bow, so much so that water is getting in because of it. so i have two questions for it. 1: is it even possible to buy just the slider piece? and 2: does someone have the dimensions for it on hand? Thank y'all in advance

Can you see if the plexiglass can be swapped (maybe reversed) around or is it just too tall, making it bow?

   I wish I could afford to build my design for a power window for mine using the old power sunroof I had kicking around from a Grand Wagoneer.

That's not a bad idea. when i get home I'll see if I can reverse it. thank you for the input

3 or 4 pane slider? I've got a factory 3 pane I can measure. 

 

It's probably not available anywhere for purchase but you can have a piece of glass made to fit.

My factory glass rear window is fine, but it has always been missing the locking latch. Anyone got a spare laying around or a suggestion?

I found a universal one in my collection from the Help! Rack.

Was it red packaging and had the help name on it? Was it adhesive mounting? I wonder if they have a catalogue. Thanks I'll check it out.

The factory slider is all glass , not plexiglass . If you need a latch ,and it is a factory slider I may know where one is at ...,

No, you can't have one made. It's not flat, it's curved.

I never noticed the slight curve in it but you can have curved glass made and you can have a flat pane of glass bent.  It's just more expensive than a regular flat pane.  It won't cost a whole lot more however since it's a very slight curve. 

 

Here's the measurements of the center pane of a factory 3 slider.  

14 7/8" x 11 1/2" x 1/4" thick.
