    I broke my rear window glass on my 2008. It's got the expensive sliding glass encapsulated design. Is it possible to remove that and just replace it with a single piece instead?

    Thanks! I don't even remember the last time I opened the rear window. So I see no point in spending the money on it.

    The rear slider is great if you lock the keys in the cab. It can be opened in less than 30 seconds with a simple piece of wire.
