Rear Window Replacement?

[HerkPilot]

My planned build involves adding a topper, but the hard to find, and still very small sliding rear window seem inadequate for ventilation and access. Has anyone looked at replacing the back window with a larger sliding option?

I'd like a bigger slider like you, or get rid of it altogether because that chinsy little bung hole of a window Ford put on there is a sad excuse for a slider. They should have done it right like Nissan and Toyota did years ago and put an automatic roll down window in there.

I miss my Sport Trac window.

I'm looking to do the exact same thing for a 2021. I like the slider on my current 1997, which allows easy in/out to the canopy.

Did you end up finding any options?
I searched around online, but didn't find any aftermarket options.

Just one bump in case anyone else has thoughts

A partial answer I've found for anyone else who's interested:
Breezer Windows

This company seems to have been in operation for quite some time -- their promo video looks to be an old VHS scan.

But, they do sell windows for gen 5 rangers.

Unfortunately it's not a slider window, and seems awkward to use with rear seats.

You have any updates for this so far?

I don't, unfortunately... It's not for lack of trying, though

Aside from searches and talking with truck / canopy shops, I've spoken with custom vehicle glass shops, etc.

Unfortunately, the one link I found above is the only lead I've found. It's not what I'm looking for, so I'm not going down that route.
