    Referring to a flex thru rear window . Proably be hard to find for older model yotas

    Levan might still make one . I always wanted to do a pop up rear window on gas struts but figured it would shake or rattle

    Eugene B. Levan no longer makes them.. he is 81 years old and I am trying to get in contact with him since he lives in Whittier, California

    Would a glass place be able to make one? possibly out of plexi-glass? (or lexan or whatever.)

    Lexan would probably be best since it is a lot more pliable and easily to bend on the ends.
    These rear windows were removeable and often times when a person wanted to take them off they would drop them and it would shatter... that was the problem and DOT deemed them unsafe.

    I do believe that if they were made of lexan or plexi glass they would work best...

    I am thinking of making them into two pieces so the possibility of breaking them would be lessened.

    I am still working on the details.
