Installing Pre-2025 Manual Rear Sliding Window on 2025 Maverick?

[Steeleye]

Has anyone heard about the possibility of replacing the solid rear glass in a 2025 XLT with one from an earlier model year that has the sliding window?

no, but I bet that actually could be done. clever thought.

I believe it was an option on 22-23 XL and XLT, so it could conceivably be found searching online salvage yards, but probably you would have to buy new parts if there's nothing local.

I recall reading on here about an aftermarket rear slider that came out last year, was much less than the OEM sliding rear window, found the post

For the extra money I'd say go with the power option. The switching electrical is pretty straighforward; one could do it with a double-pole double-throw (DPDT) switch not unlike a regular window switch (versus the relays the OE implementation utilizes).

It was only a 150.00 option on my 22 XLT FX4, anybody that didn't get it I think was foolish, and its not power but its a easy reach to open from the back door. My dog loves it, removed the middle headrest so she can have a nice view. You could check with the big auto glass companies like Safelite if they can get it and how much to install, am sure its
going to be a lot more than 150.00. Get the part number.

here's a direct link to the aftermarket options. it was inside that thread previously mentioned above. https://nagd1.com/search?type=product&q=Maverick

I am planning to do the same with my 25 XLT. That and adaptive cruise. It will still cost way less that the trim upgrade to Lariat (4k+ more). I like the fabric seats better, would have used the heated options maybe a few times a year, and I like the wheels on the XLT better (not the tires though, but it ain’t a big deal. I’ll swap when the Contis are done). The 360 camera would have been neat I guess, but coming from a 2006 Tundra with no cameras, I think I’ll be fine.

Pulled the plug and just had the aftermarket back window with a manual slider installed. The glass is actually thicker than OEM, and I am loving the added versatility.

that looks really great.

Hopefully the mod doesn’t invalidate my warranty for some reason

Very cool, want to do the same with my 25 XLT (possibly put a motor on it also). Do you mind sharing what the total cost was for purchase and installation?

there's no reason that it would conflict with warranty claims unless it's something highly unusual.

like, your rear window leaks and it does it enough to damage the rear seat. you obviously couldn't claim a materials defect under warranty for that.

but even if your rear window was leaking, if you then had an issue with a cv joint, that's unrelated. no one gets to remove the warranty just because you modified something.

Got it from these folks for $403 including shipping and had it installed in my driveway for $320. I kept the original glass as a backup.

The listing says for 2022-2024 models, but I spoke to the owner of the company and he assured me that it would fit the 2025. It does!

Also, they do offer a powered version of this window but you would have to mount the motor behind the back seat if there is room, run a wire to the area of the front console, and install a switch someplace.
