    Looking to get one (for rear sliding window), but was wondering if anyone has one installed already to see what it looks like?? Doing a front guard on the hood as well. Lets see them pics!

    Why do you need rear guards I see no purpose in them, but that's my opinion. Not sure many have them on their trucks but could be wrong??

    TRD Cat-back Exhaust. Semi-Debadged. Trimmed down stock Antenna. Weathertech vent visors. TRD FJ Cruiser Center Cap Wheel Mod. 265/75/16 Firestone Destination A/T,s . Inverter tapped into for outlet in cab. Tacomaworld sticker which adds 5 hp.
    X2, only benefit would be if our sliders opened down. Also there is not much view out the rear window anyway, with the headrests for the back seat. That would take away even more.

    Agreed ^^ I was thinking the same thing they slide sideways not down. To me rain guard = fail for a sliding back window. It want guard anything.

    I had a buddy with an older Chevy that had one and he loved it. I think it is more for looks than anything else

    Well I was just thinking because I like to drive with the windows open even when it rains, wanted to make sure no rain gets into the window (I've watched it while driving and water seems to just pour down the rear window

    The rain will still be sucked into the cab from the rear window if you have one of the others cracked.
