georgiaboy, I believe a visit to rockauto will fix your problem, I've looked this up myself and there are quite a few threads on that little sliding window tab. I believe this is it DORMAN Part # 76989 Rear Sliding Window Latch. You will also probably want to clean out the track the glass slides on to help the glass close.

a headache rack will fit that real quick. i just custom built mine and 20mins after install i locked my keys in the truck with it running. i had a coat hanger in the toolbox luckily.

not really shure like i said i built mine so i could put my tool box on. and my rear latch has been broken since day one and their isnt any one getting trough the rear window. when i was in school we would use a credit card to un-latch them from the outside any how.so the only way i can see to prevent that is with a solid rear window, a headache rack or even a gun rack that fits in the slider track on the inside.
