Operating rear window while driving

OK you guys, who has developed a way of opening the rear window while driving. It can be done, but not safely. I'd like a better way and thought one of you cats might have a solution.

 

I'm tall enough to reach my arm back there and slide it open while keeping my eyes on the road

 

Pull off the road, open window, merge back into traffic

 

Grow taller.

Someone here or over at ttora made a crude, but very usable electric-opening rear slider by using an linear actuator.

Trying to find that link . . .

Edit:

Here it is

 

im 6'4 so i can reach it in my doublecab with out an issue

 

You have a single cab shouldnt it be easy? I have an access and im only 5"10', but i can still get it

 

^What he said. I just eyeball it in the rear view mirror and it's done.

 

x2?

I'm barely 5'4" and I can do it in my first gen. . .

 

you win! lol

I don't even have to eyeball it anymore. I got it down pat

2nd gens are bigger...

 

So is my dong.

 

i don't know why toyota doesn't offer a power sliding rear window like the tundra.

 

I do it all the time in my access cab no prob. I'm also 6'2" so that might help a bit.

yeah just like the locking tailgate and gas door.

 

I know maan, we complain a lot, but the tacoma still the best mid-sized truck out there.

 

Sunglasses don't fit? Just spend a billion $$$ on Maui Jims, they all fit in there.

 

In summation, they fit.

My pair of Maui Jims were ridiculous in price. But, dammit, do they do everything right. All polarized lens mess with the tint and some other stuff in the truck. Mauis were no exception.

Last pair of shades were Persol 2189. NLA for a while now, but absolute tits for non-polarized shades. My Spy Logans don't fit, though. Too cool for school I guess.

 

In a reg cab and access cab, piece of cake, but double cab is a different story. I'm 5 11 and can't get it safely while driving

 

I don't think I ever opened it on my 05 DC. I haven't opened it on my new one either.
