Lindsay Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carnuck Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 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.

Dzimm Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugarfoot Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarfoot Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you can't have one made. It's not flat, it's curved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
