I was just wondering how rare of an option it was to have rear opening side windows on a supercab. And what if any option package did it come with. Also is there any cutting of the cab to install the hinges for the window because I have found a beautiful set in a yard and the hinge holes look to be already there. I thought there may be plugs in the holes under my fixed window gaskets.
Any info will be greatly appreciated....
As far as I know The hinge holes are just under the gaskets. No plugs in them. I am not positive on this as its been a long long time since I have had a window out. I dont know how rare it is But I took them out of my trucks and installed fixed windows because they Hissed With the AC on going down the road. If you could get Brand new hinges and Rubber seals they would Probably be Great But I dont think anyone makes the parts.
you have to cut the hole for the hinges. if your truck didn't have the window from the factory they didn't cut them out. another bad thing about them is. it's very easy to pop them out and break into your truck. i was gonna put them in mine but changed my mind.

They actually came from the factory already cut out for the hinges. I know this cause i just today poped out my fixed windows to install popouts. I also am looking for new hardware, but the holes are already there. there are dimples in the sheet metal inside for the 2 screws that hold the latching mech in place and all you have to do is use a self tapping screw on that.
