Passenger Window Replacement

Any advice on replacing the passenger window on my 2000 F-250? I found this one on Amazon but always skeptical of Amazona and ebay products especially on important/expensive things.

https://a.co/d/6P1HG6v
Surprisingly the tape job held up at 70-75mph! A bit noisy but not terrible. I kept the AC off of Max and that seemed to keep pressure on the inside of the plastic and it didn't whip around as bad in the wind.

On an unrelated note... anyone looking for a 5 year old? I may be giving one away

many decades ago,
the rear window was busted out of my Suburban, the lift gate style window.

like you, it had to be "fixed right now",
so I hit the hardware store for plastic stuff and duct tape.

that Duct Tape stayed on way too long,
when I had the window replaced,
the glass guy said " I am not fooling with that Duct Tape, that is your job "

bitch of a job too

He was throwing a rock at a squirrel in the tree (unbeknownst to us...) and nailed the window. He did it the evening of the 13th. I removed the glass the morning of the 14th and taped it all up. We got home this afternoon the 16th. I immediately ripped it all off because I knew the longer it stayed on there the worse it would be to get off and because I needed that passenger mirror to back my camper into my driveway. I also cleared out the garage and parked it in there.

Driving home without that mirror sucked. I tried to drive at or just under the speed limit in hopes of not having to pass anyone and I got stuck passing 3 times. The first was a van with its hazards on doing 25mph under the speed limit. No idea what their problem was. The 2nd was a fully loaded dump truck doing about 25 in a 70. The 3rd was a motorcycle doing 50 in a 70. Thankfully all 3 happened at very long straight-aways and I was able to take my sweet time getting back over.

The tape didn't leave too much of a mess.

He's small for his age; around the 20th percentile. So unless he has a weird growth spurt in his teens then he likely won't stand a chance of playing sports. Kid's sports have gotten so crazy competitive nowadays that all these like 7 and 8 years olds have trainers and stuff already!

Lost my driver side window near Moab, mirrors collided with a rented RV rolling down the road in Arches nat'l park. Scary near miss. Spent one night taped up like that then glass replaced next day in town. Luckily not enough time for duct tape go all gorilla, but they still asked me to remove it.

But it looks like his arm is ahead of the curve.
