Re: windshield is in!
I like the vent glass.
I would keep her original. It's hot in Arizona. You need it! Posted via Mobile Device

Re: windshield is in!
Keep the vent windows, just as from the factory.

Re: windshield is in!
Seems like the consensus is keep the vent window, sounds like you get better airflow through the cab that way too. Since my truck has sat in my garage since I got it I can't really say! FYI, I had it replaced by a local company. After lots of Internet surfing it ended up being the cheapest way to go. Total cost including labor was 225. I couldnt even come close to finding a windshield in that ballpark online not including installation

Re: windshield is in!
I'd keep the vents also.
