Ok guys I can grab a complete rear sliding window that has motor in it as well.

 

What I'm wondering is how hard would it to be to make it work with my truck that currently doesn't have it?

 

Looking for some options, I'd like to keep it as oem as possible.

I personally think the sliding rear window is ugly. I wish GM did what Toyota did and had the entire glass slide down. That would be something to have IMHO.

From looking at the other thread I got the other parts needed. I also changed them so they're easier to find.   Console Trim - 23104422 - $29.06 *W/ Homelink Switch - 22774498 - $38.56 Connector

I ended up doing the titan window since the sliding one was small in my opinion

Did I ask my dealer and was told $1600? I'd like this option but can't recall. Was I told it could be done for this amount?

I just had the back seats and carpet out to install dynamat. I have the power slider it looks complicated back there. I would plan on 3 hours just to tear everything apart and put it back together unless you are used to working with interior trim. Plus whatever time it takes to do the window. You might as well do some sound proofing while you got it all ripped out.

 

I love my slider. The borla exhaust sounds better with the back window open.

 

Pic is what it looks like under padding of rear wall. Looks like some sort of power supply in the middle and wires that go up to the window are on passenger side. 773933ddbfcf0f19a1062790c972ea7a.jpg

I agree on the look, but I still like the sliding window on my truck. They could have made it look better though... I love the Toyota look. Even the Fords (I think?) have what looks to be a solid piece of glass all around the rear sliding window, so no plastic on the top or bottom. Much cleaner look.

I can get the entire window system plus motor and all for $125 CAD new.

 

So the wiring and BCM programming is what I can see costing money.

 

From what I've found so far only LTZ or SLT gave the harness pre wired for this mod.

 

So I would need to figure out how to run a harness from back to front overhead console(which I'm also about to change out with homelink).

 

For the price I can get the assembly for, I do want to do this and document this. Just need some guidance.

maybe pgamboa will jump in and help. He is the master when it comes to harnesses. Hopefully he sees this!

      Multigate Connector Difficult to Connect Fully

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      This is just a thought as I can't claim this is the correct thing to do but will suggest it and you can decide if its something you would try. First round up some electrical contact cleaner spray as they at least claim its not supposed to damage the components ( brake cleaner depending on the type is a real destroyer of plastic etc ) and to use that to assist to clean out any grime from the pins as well as the mechanism by spraying and working the lever etc. Then my next thought is to use silicone spray lube and not on the pins but on the seal and the pivot assembly. It may not be possible to spray it on certain area's and have to use a q tip as Davestar mentioned to keep it from getting on the pins. Dielectric grease can be fine on some things but its easy to get too much on if not careful and then gunk things up and a possible risk of getting it on the pins or sockets. The silicone spray is able to get into a mechanical component to help lube and on surfaces its just a fine film to reduce friction such as that seal. Also it can be doused off with a good flush of the electrical contact cleaner the next time for a repeat of a "clean and then lightly lube" step process to wash off any dirt that had stuck to the exterior etc of the plug.   Free advice, yes. Good advice ... now there's the question mark !

      I just bought one of these.   https://www.topdon.us/collections/diagnostic-tools/products/artidiag-pro   Yeah, it`s got a cable. $250/year after 2 years. Do I want more? Yep. But, I`m not working any more and can`t afford a whirlpool in my tool box.

      Why don't I have a good scanner? I've always wanted one when I've needed one.   My latest reading says I don't need to do a relearn on the ckp sensor on a 1995 with OBD 1.5. The relearn is prescribed for the later-model 1995's which shipped with actual OBD II when GM completed the transition in prep for the 1996 MY. I need to confirm that. Did you know forums are disappearing? Knuckleheads on Facebook... it's not the same. It's just not.   So, scanners. Again, shooting myself in the foot for having eBayed my Snap On MT2500 "brick" with all the adapters. Not that I couldn't buy another but those are getting quite old, and mine wasn't new enough to work on 2000's vehicles.   Damn it (as I'm scanning my email between paragraphs here). Did you know there's a 2000 Jimmy 2-door on BaT that's ending this morning? It's local. I want it. 14k miles. Absolutely beautiful.   Back to scanners. MT2500's are old. Solus, now that could be a contender. There's a ~2008 Verus with a system error that's basically new in box for cheap. Hmm...I'm not sure about a scanner that runs an archaic version of windows (95 or CE, I can't tell).   I want the ability to reset and rotate TPMS, test individual modules, bleed ABS, electronic parking brake controls for servicing brakes, relearn procedures and other bidirectional controls.   Snap On does an MT2600. It's a new model as of last year, marketed as their "entry" scanner. Entry? Only where $1900 gets you through the doorway plus, I'm guessing, $1000/year if you wish to keep it current. So goes scan tools actually designed for production environments. Want decent products with excellent support, you pay for it.   Everyone is raving about Autels and TopDons and Foxconns and all these newer brands that are selling the $500 "prosumer" scanners for backyard hacks like me. They're tempting...honestly. Updates are cheaper, base prices are remarkably cheaper... And you get to deal with bugs and translation whoopsies and, well, just don't use it on anything expensive, OK? Having a dealer replace an ECU because it needs to be re-imaged after an adventure in scanning is no joke. But I think most people are getting by OK with these units.   eBay on a scratch-and-sniff pro-model oldie, a shiny new TopDon, or???   God dang it, I can't stop looking at this Jimmy. I'm ready! I'll Bring The TRailer! It's beautiful.

      What have you done to your K2 today?

      I removed the OE running boards.  It looked so much better.  I wish I took them off a long time ago.     I had to put something back on for my wife.  I wanted Westin Sure Grip Running Boards but they are very pricey, like $600 plus.  I was going to go with the Ionic 41's like I had on the 2019 Silverado but went with Westin Outlaw Drop Steps instead, about $200 cheaper.  They are sturdy and functional but not super crazy about the look, but it works.
