Default Help!! Ford F150 rear window removal or...!?

Hello there..
I just bought my first Ford and first Pickup a few days ago!
I must say i love it... really cool truck!
But I have an issue with the rear window I need to solve!!! I need a bigger opening in the rear window than the stock center sliding window!
I am going to put a SnugTop Supersport shell on the bed.. I carry windsurfing boards and i need the extra length beyond the f150s rear window... The Boards will need to stick into the cab by about a couple of feet!!
At first i thought i could find aftermarket rear windows that slide down completely or at least open half way... but so far no success finding anybody who makes such a part... Do u know of any one who makes such a part? I need at least half open!
The second option i have is to remove the rear window all together? Not too happy to do that .. but i may have to! and i don't know if i will be able to have a clean finish once i remove the window...?? Any one with experience with removing the rear window? is it a very involved and difficult process to remove the rear window? possible to have a clean finish?
need your help!!!
If anyone here has any ideas about the above.. please drop me a few lines... i would really appreciate your help and any information u may have!!
My shell will be in in 3 weeks... i hope i find a solution before that!
Hope to hear from u soon!
Thanx and Cheers

Have you taken it to an auto glass place? They have access to alot of information and can probably recommend something for you. You may want to get a quote if they do and then shop online for a cheaper price.
