Default Manual Rear Window 18-19

Hey guys well an 18 wheeler just took out the back window on my ‘19 single cab. Before replacing it with the same I wanted to see if any of you guys knew if there was a manual rear sliding widow that I can replace mine with.

Only thing I have ever seen was an aftermarket, and when it was talked about on the forums it was not spoken highly of.

I wonder how hard it would be to retrofit a powered rear window to mine.

I'm guessing your RC is an XL, yes? As I've discovered perusing other threads on adding LED bed lights, etc, I'm betting the existing truck wiring required for a power window (like you'd get with a 302a with Power Equip Group) isn't present on your RC, and might be a real pain to run.

It’s actually an XLT I’ve got all the add ons from factory.

Mind if I ask (just out of curiosity) how an 18 wheeler takes out your rear window? Sides and front I totally get but how so the rear?

Clearly you should have put more stickers on the window

Lol yes obviously! I might end up installing the same glass as I can’t find any info on making a powered sliding one working.
