Newer sliding rear window in a 99

[Barnbuilder]

Anyone put one of the newer sliding rear windows in a 99-07 truck? I just broke mine putting the bed back on.

None of you guys have tried this?

So has anyone replaced one of the newer windows? Do I just need to remove sealant that is on the body work and clean with alcohol or something else? New window showed up today.

They aren't held in with the rubber gasket like the obs are?
If it the black rtv looking stuff. It's actually black urethane made for Windows.

The newer windows are glued in with the urethane. 2008 and up trucks.

Your putting in a power one? Curious about this as well. They 06 dash i am working on installing has the switch for the power rear window and I would love to use it.

No Vader. Its a manual. Just replacing the rubber gasketed rear window with the glue in rear window. Would love to have the power window but I don't have time to mess with it.

Use tape, like painters tape, to remove the glue. Otherwise its like trying to get gum off your shoe, gets everywhere... A glass guy at work directed me towards the tape.deal. just kinda ball it up and dab at the chit, it will come off.

Ok. I have most of it off. I didn't know if I needed to use a primer or cleaner to prep the surface.

We usually spray it with brake clean on a rag before putting the new one in.
