vent window

My friend busted the vent window out of his 93 last night cause he locked the keys in it. I have another friend that had some early 80's doors laying around so I went to get a vent window and they were different. The 93 style has 2 screws and the latch the ones on the earlier trucks only had 1 screw and the latch. Does anyone know what year they changed?

I believe 92 was the first year... if your buddy has the whole wing window assy, just switch them out. Both sides if he wants them to match.
Hope that helps.

I have a....few

Y bust it? a "hose remover" tool is PERFECT for breaking into the corner vent. A screw driver can be used but won't push the button down for you. AAA experience
