Sliding Glass Panel

Has anyone had to replace the back slider panel? Some asshat broke into 24 cars in my apartment complex last night. I've barely had the truck a week...Toyota quoted me $400 for the glass, was thinking just an autoglass place might be better. We'll see what the insurance company says.

 

That sucks!

 

Yeah looks like a $500 deductible as well because it was a break in and not just a glass chip or something. What a mess.

 

Check around at the local junk yards for a totaled out Tacoma that they are parting out.

 

Something tells me I would have a hard time finding a totaled 2017 Tacoma with the power slider at a local junk yard, worth a look though.

 

Wow, they broke into 24 cars and not one person caught them?

Crazy. Inside job

 

Probably some kids breaking windows for fun. I doubt the slider panel would be the window of choice to break if they were trying to gain access

 

Time to move...

 

No they were indeed stealing stuff. My truck was the last vehicle broken into and the officer actually caught him in the act. Cornered in a parking garage and still let him get away somehow. Even the other cops were talking shit to this guy about it. He could have at least popped him with the taser...

I wasn't there, but reliable sources say it was an accurate re-enactment of this. Legend says the same music was even pumping through the garage....

 

i think some very expensive toys/ tools got stolen from your truck... sorry to hear someone did that to you man.

 

Luckily, its so new I didn't even have anything in it. Usually Id have at least a fly rod or three in my vehicle...lucked out

 

So this just happened to me over the weekend as well. The truck is less than a month old. Luckily my local dealership had a rear panel in stock. $385 plus tax. It doesn't come with the sliding panel though. The installer took out my old center panel and into the new assembly.
They broke into the right panel only.
As of now we're stuck with OEM replacements for the rear. Nobody else makes them.

 

Thats fucked up. Why break the back glass? Looks like somebody just tossed a rock through it. Sorry that happened.

 

So glad my insurance company has a 0 deductible for break-ins and vandalism.

 

Thats pretty awesome, who are you insured with?

 

State Farm. Have been for almost 20 years.

 

that is great, I was told by the insurance company that North Carolina is barred from doing that by law...which is ridiculous, when I lived in Ohio there was no deducible for any glass breakage.

 

More like they didn't pass a law that forces insurance companies to provide a $0 deductible.
