When I installed mine, I sealed it myself. I did not use what came in the kit.

A very good product to use now is "Neoprene Black Jack". It is black and stays pliable. It is a very good sealer. I use it everyday on fireplace installs. Make sure you are ventilated when you use it though. The smells are strong until it is cured.

I wouldn't mind doing it, even to a perfect cab, and kinda like the idea for air flow down and through with a rear slidder, but I don't think I'd ever do it up here.... Even without water leaks, which would be bad enough, but air leaks at highway speed at -30 in the winter would be a real b****.

I'd also have to have solid tint, or paint the glass.... i like the air flow idea, but not the sunlight in the top... I like to get in my cab to get out of the sun/heat.

I dunno though... those twin windows on that silver one look pretty good, might have to think about this for my hot rod 2wd... which will be a clear weather summer driver anyway.

I would not put a sunroof in but do like the idea of more air flow in the cab if you don't have a/c . I never heard or seen a stock sunroof.

Back then when I did mine a friend used to ride around with me all the time on the weekends so he could drink his beer. He would always throw the cans through the back window into my bed. Never had a problem with that.

He bought an old chevy just because it had the sliding back window. We went riding in it one night and he spit chewing tobacco out the back window. It went out and came right back through and splattered all over the front windshield. He was ticked. I laughed my butt off.

The sunroof in my truck changed the cab draft so the stuff did not get sucked up through the rear slider.
