Just have someone custom-cut the glass to fit.
What's wrong with the butterfly windows?

I work at PPG Autoglass. Your window is curved + tempered, so you may have trouble getting a custom fit. If you do get 1, you're lucky. But you could go with LEXAN and get it to fit. It's just what you can spend to get the results you want.

I'd be very suprised if there is a kit for this. The after-market for these trucks is very limited. You're probly stuck with a custom solution.

yea i figured that since i dont drive a s10 or a z71 it may be hard to find stuff but hey the entire truck is custom so im sure thats the solution and lexan huh so would that work just like a regular crank window with custom track or do i have to go with like a "pop in" window?

If you go to glass shops you might and I do mean might, find them to have window track, I'll go to work at 10:00 and I'll see if there is window track products or not. And if so, I'll get the product numbers. Dodge doors have a little curve to them,but it may be better to go Lexan.
