    im honestly not even sure what these are called and perhaps that’s why I can’t find one.

    I’m looking for the seal that goes on the cap door, that would seal up against the tailgate. Right now I’ve probably a 1” gap between the two.

    The cap is specifically for a 2nd gen, and fits perfectly other than this one flaw.

    Any ideas where I can purchase this?

    You can get the whole window assembly for like 400 new. But I've never seen the bottom separate... Frankly mine is cracked so I hope it never breaks off

    Not sure what it's called but the cap looks cool with the black gate.

    On my old 03 Tacoma with the ARE cap, the back window met the tailgate. Check out the ARE site they might have an accessory.

    i hope there’s another option. I have less than half that invested into the cap! I guess I could use a piece of roll bar padding if I absolutely had no other option

    Thanks! I’ve never been a cap kinda guy, but should extend my camping pretty far into fall this year.
