Does anyone make a sliding rear window with the frame in the natural silver aluminum color anymore? All the searches I’ve done are coming up with the black frames. Any suggestions?

I bought mine used from eBay a few years back.

I have a used one that I pulled out of a truck several years ago. It doesn’t slide easily and has a couple of very slight dings. I’m gonna work with it a little and see what I can do to get it to slide better. Thought I might just pick up a new one if I could find one. I think the silver frames just look a little more period correct than the black frames.

Mine was VERY difficult to slide. I used silicone spray and it loosened up and has worked fine for the past 10 years.

I have two of the things, one silver and one black, but both have a piece of glass busted out, and the local glass shops don't want to fool with them.
