Anyone seen a rolling rear window?
I have heard of guys using a blazer motor/window channel but I dont think I have ever seen one. I think it would be really cool to have the back window of a truck roll down. There are the breezer windows which pop out but havent seen one of those before either.

I like the idea of the window that rolls up and down like a blazer rear window... That'd be super cool!

I have seen a roll up one in a newer truck, like a Toyota or something. I have also seen the ones that you can pop out and that kind of neat.

The new Toyota Tundras have a roll down rear window.
When our trucks were new, I remember seeing an advertisement for a power roll down window. Of course, I was 13 in 1987, and didn't have any cash.

Several years ago a poster on ChevyTalk said that it was a dealer installed option on our trucks. I have never seen one...

It was a dealer option and an aftermarket item at one time. It was expensive at took up too much space behind the seat.....

I have seen adds for the aftermarket for one. Use to be an advertisement in Truckin. They also have a power slider.

Hay you know that pick up truck exlorer has that. The center rolls down. It's about a 30 inch wide section and then two side. Bet it could be made to work.

I saw a custom 73-79 at a car show several years ago that had a power rear window and if I remember correctly it was a blazer/burb rear gate window... Looked factory, too. I imagine it would be pretty intensive to retro fit all the guts and channel into a cab. Would be very very cool, though..

My mom has a newer Toyota. Toyota sends her propaganda all the time. Toyota now offers this as a option on the new 4door truck.

I think he wants it to be able to be rolled up and down, like a side window.
