Replace rear window with slider

theonlyway · November 8, 2015

was this to remove the old window and install a new one? if so that seems like a hell of a deal. on the other hand, it's only a $250-$300 option on the sticker so if that's what your talking about, not such a good deal.

Sorry, it was $750 and yes to remove and add.

Love the idea of a slider if it is big enough to be functional.

I'm another non slider guy. I like the cleaner look and unobstructed view. My last truck had it and the only time I used it was when the kids would open it then complain about it and not be able too shut it.

I love mine. I don't really use during the summer down here (Houston). Way to hot, but in the season we call "winter" I use it all the time. It creates a good air flow on the cooler days. Plus the rear defog is really nice since my truck is often covered in dew in the mornings.

I use mine occasionally when it's warm and the windows are down. I wish it was like the one the Toyota Tundras had where the whole back window goes down into the body. Those are cool.

I got behind a first gen Nissan Titan leaving work today and this looked earily similar.

Fat fingered, and shot from the hip.

Yes. CR Laurence makes one and I've really been eyeing it.

OK guys / girls so i tried to do a post the how to install rear power sliding window the other day and it all went south all there is in my post is the GM upfitter wiring diagrams so ill give it another go i did the power sliding rear window upgrade on my 2016 2500 silverado LTZ duramax crew cab short bed 4x4 now this will seam hard to do but its not I have found info on the internet that states only the higher end models have the rear wiring in place so first thing you need to do is check that only way i know how to do this is pull the rear seats and rubber mat from the rear of the cab and look on the passengers side mid way up for the wire plug with nothing plugged into it if its there your set for a fairly easy install now my truck did not have the weld studs in place for the motor to mount to so this is what i did i installed the power slider with the motor taped to the glass then after it set up i dropped the motor and lined it up on the mounting boss`s there are 3 raised boss`s on that side just move the motor around you will see were it lines up (the motor is attached to the regulator by two push pull cables so it will hang and line just about right up) i drilled 3 1/4 " holes in the back of the cab (be careful so you don`t poke the bed its close) then i used 3 14-20" SS bolts with metal rubber sealing washers on the outside and used 3M strip calk 08578 to make 3 calk washers to install on the rubber side of the sealing washer to make sure i have no leaks i put the bolts and washers in place with a sivitec 323423 flex claw tool and mounted the motor and plugged it in done back there for now moving to the overhead console open the glass`s holder and insert your hand in between the front of the glass`s holder and the console and pull down the hole section were the led`s and the switches will pop down look up inside the back portion of the console and you will see two torx pull them out then go to the front of the console grab the two sides and pull down there are two spring clips holding it in there so you need to pull a bit drop it down and go to the main harness plug and detach it no the plug left up there is the (X316 headliner harness to console plug) your going to add 3 wires to this plug ill get to that in a bit you do not need to drop the headliner there is plenty rum to feed your new 3 wire harness you are going to make in the front of the headliner you do need to pull the drivers side pillar post cover do this by popping out the two small plastic screw covers on the grab handle and then pull the two screws remove grab handle the pillar cover is held in by spring clips im going to list the wires you need to add now and wear they come from and go to this is easy make your harness with the overhead wire ends installed and let the other ends blank for now

first wire is going to be the power wire from the driver side fuse block (X51L) fuse block instrument panel left to the overhead console truck harness plug (X316) pull the X51L block out its held in by retaining clips very easy to pull look on the back side for the X3 plug pop it out and find pin# 11 install your wire with proper GM terminal end in there make sure you have the tang on the terminal end facing the right way look at the others to see how its installed run this wire up to the overhead X316 overhead console plug and find pin#23 add this to that location

next wire is going to be the closed signal wire this wire comes from the X61A junction block this is the box under the dash behind the brake pedal next to the E brake you have to pop the cover off it find the X3 pin plug unplug it and install your wire end into pin # 26 run this wire up to X316 overhead console truck harness pin #20

next will be the open signal wire from the X61A junction block this is the box under the dash behind the brake pedal next to the E brake in the same X3 pin plug find pin #32 install your pin and run this wire up to X316 and install into pin# 19

THINGS YOU NEED TO INSTALL

1. rear power sliding window with regulator and motor

2. the proper overhead console with rear slider switch in it (order with all the options in your overhead console now and then add power slider to it) THERE ARE MANY

3. passenger side fuse box

4. two lower trim panels under power sliding window (old ones will not fit) or cut

5. 20 - 25 foot of wire GM terminal wire ends that fit the plugs and fuse box 3 - 1/4--20" bolts sealing flat washers and nuts

I DID THIS INSTALL CHEAP I GOT ALL MY PARTS FROM A SALVAGE YARD EVERYTHING FOR 400.00 IT DID TAKE ME A BIT TO UNDERSTAND THE GM UPFITTER WIRE DIAGRAM BUT ALL THE HARD WORK IS DONE FOR YOU JUST FOLLOW THE UPFITTER PLUG AND PIN LOCATIONS I HAVE ATTACHED AND MY INSTRUCTIONS

IF YOU NEED MORE HELP OR ADVISE EMAIL [email protected] /CALL/TEXT 610-730-2789 leave a VM JUST SO YOU ALL KNOW IM NO ELECTRICAL GUY I SUCK AT IT BUT I MADE MY WAY THROUGH THIS WITH LITTLE TROUBLE ALSO KNOW DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK I WILL NOT BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR WIRE FIRES WRONG INSTALL OR DUMB MISTAKES GOOD LUCK
