Gsmblue Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 On the rear sliding window, there are the metal bezels/trim that meet in the middle that the latch is fixed to. I am missing one of the metal trim pieces on my truck, does anyone have any suggestions of where/how to source something like that? Local breakers are not much help right now - low inventory due to fires last season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very rarely do you see the weatherstripping pieces for factory sliders but I've never seen frame parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will just have to get a deal somewhere somehow on a JY one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you be able to take a photo of your window and the area of the missing piece? There were a few sliders used (factory/aftermarket) so if someone is walking around the jy, it might help them keep an eye out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s a little crazy, I had the same issue, and I used a piece of an old aluminum storm window sash, went right into place. I used some clear silicone to hold the gasket and glass in place.
