I looked and I don't see mopar listed. So I guess it isn't. So I will take it up with the shop monday. It's XYG so its aftermarket. I was wrong in the above posts. I guess its wait and see for leaks and quality. Not gonna lose sleep over it. Again Thank you. View attachment 166937

Yeah, definitely aftermarket but that might be a good thing. Here's what the label would look like if it was Mopar.

I had a replacement done today, it is different than what was in there. Im just letting it sit till tomorrow, I didn't even want to drive the mile and a half home. Here is a terrible pic I took when I got home. I will take more tomorrow, And the slider was connected backwards so I will go back and have it fixed this week. View attachment 166932

You would rather have that little port hole, than the new design they have? I had actually thought about a Ford, but the back window, and no bed boxes killed the thought.

I barely ever use it so it wouldn’t bother me. I only use it so lessen the reverb when riding with the window down

I just crack open one of the back windows to get rid of the reverb. I wouldn't miss the slider either.

Window visors also eliminate the reverb. I can crack or lower just my driver window and now reverb after I installed my weather tech window visors.

I had a set on a Jeep I bought used. On the way home, after the purchase, I realized the first thing I was going to do was rip them off. They just aren't for me. They obstruct your lateral vision and I don't like how they look. 😬

I've never had an issue with buffetting by opening only a front window.

I noticed I said now reverb. I mean now no reverb with the visors. Before the visors I had horrible reverb with only the driver window down.

Anyone have a picture of the new rear window design? I did a few searches to no avail.
It sounded like it still looks the same, but I think the part number had a different suffix maybe. It was in another window leak thread, as I remember. I know the person posting said it was a change in June. I'm not even sure if it is only replacements, or only builds, or both. I only saw it in a post.
