Does anyone have a mod or upgrade to the stupid plastic lock on the rear slide window? Mine slowly pops loose. It doesn't seem very secure to begin with.

The plastic latches aren't very secure. Plus they are prone to break. I have heard of people using a window sash lock to replace the broken plastic latch.

Years ago I made a steel horseshoe clip for my 1972 Dodge Powerwagon. The previous owner had broke the plastic clip off the back slider glass. I've even gone a step farther for security was using a few length of steel rod to thread all in the tracks to keep the windows closed. But being that was a standard cab it was easy to open back up. Now with my 96 with the slider you have to crawl in the back seat to open it. It's a extended cab not a quad cab.

I never open mine either so to replace the latch I just drilled the screw holes in a piece of plastic to attach and hold the window shut. I always run A/C when it is summer here in AZ so don't need the open window.

That window latch sounds good to me.

I was told that you need to check the size of the latch and the smaller one is the one needed.
