Best regards,

I'm interested in his number. I saw this thread a while back and recently tried to find it, to no avail.... Glad to see it came up again.

Thanks, Chris

I purchased a brand new replacement rear sliding window from CRL to replace my leaking rear window. I found the source of the leak. There is a plastic U shaped track on the top and bottom of the sliding glass. it is screwed to the frame under the window seal. Turns out there are four holes in this track that should align with four holes in the metal window frame. This allows any water that collects in the track to drip down and then out of the window seal. On my new window only 2 of the 4 holes aligned, the other 2 were about an inch off. On the window I replaced none of the 4 holes signed up. On the new window I disassembled the sliders, cut the 2 other holes out and reinstalled everything. No more leaky window.

I figured this could help someone else from wasting valuable time or dropping $500 on a replacement window they don't actually need (like I did) Cheers!
