    My 3rd gen tacoma was broken into recently through the back window and I'm wondering how I can go about making that back window a little more secure. Currently the locking mechanism is just a latch that is unlocked by lifting slightly outwards from the inside. The thief was able to pry through from the outside, shaving down the edge of the window and cutting into the inner edge plastic and lifting the latch on the lock. I'm wondering if there is an actual key and lock option for these back windows like the older older models or if its possible to have this window replaced for a one piece. Let me know what advice you guys have! Anything is appreciated. Thanks!

    Even the one piece can be popped out, but it's less of a target.

    The SR models have single windows.

    One piece back window? I would like to have one instead of the sliding thing.
