rear windows/doors

Post by Bad_Ass_S10 »

Does anyone know if there are windows for the rear doors that are not smoked, All i can find is smoked or factory tented windows. I need to find clear windows if possible, I have already called some local glass shops and everyone said the same thing that it was not an option so to find replacements that are clear is impossible :?:

Actually it's probably a carshow thing.....

Go to a big show and you'll notice a lot of the vehicles with no window winting at all, that way the competitors can show off the interior without having to leave the windows down all day.

Badass -- you might want to try and see if the rear doors are the same on the brazillian/south american S-10 crew's -- it's been more of a fleet/work truck down there, and those trucks might have a clear glass option.

Just a thought.

I'm wondering if the big glass is the same as the glass in the rear 4 door blazer. As for the two smaller windows, probably could get them custom cut.

Good Luck,

i thought about that too, but I havent seen any clear glass on a 4 door blazer either -- it was a standard option for factory tinted glass even on base models, and mine is so dark , that I haven't seen the need to tint the windows ont he trucka t all, and I usually run 20 - 35% on all my vehicles.

I've seen a few 4 door blazers with no tint here in NY on DOT county trucks. Granted the blazer/crew plant is here in Linden, NJ.

I just saw a 4door blazer and the window looks very very close to our rear window. The small window is def. not the same. There is def. non-tinted windows out there cause fleet vehicles you could get them without tint. The problem will be getting your local glass shop to find it.

Good Luck,

I grabbed a tape measure and went and measured the rear glass in my blazer..

These aren't exactmeasurements, and I was measuring outside the truck, from the inside of the black border around the window:

front to bacK
at the bottom window sill it was about 17 3/4"
at the top it was roughly 17 1/2" (My ventshade was in the way

top to bottom:
At the front it was about 17 1/4 to 17 3/8" Ventshade was in the way again

At the back it was about 17 3/4"


Without completely removing the glass I can't say for sure what exact dimensions are. I also can't say if the compound curves of the glass are the same.

Take a 20 inch square of tracing paper to a parking lot, find an unattended 4 door blazer, and go trace you an outline of the window, then cut it out and see if it fits on your truck.

I have a conversion, and the rear doors and windows are brazilian GM parts, the rears were untinted, they have aftermarket tint.
