    I have an '08 with the manual slider and apparently some slime ball threw a rock and broke the sliding center glass panel. I went online to see if I could order just that piece and it appears it's not available for that year but it is for 2010 and later but looks like an electrically operated slider. Does anyone have intimate knowledge of the various sliders that can tell me how I can replace that glass and not have to buy a full rear window assembly? I included a picture if there's any question as to what window it has.

    Wanted to post the conclusion to this for future use. I was able to get a replacement from Brad's Auto Glass for $130 including shipping from MI to CA. This is not a factory part as Toyota only offers the entire rear window assembly. Brad's has an install video on their website as well that makes it look like a fairly straightforward job. I will post back if I encounter any important issues after installation. Here's the link to the replacement. https://bradsautoglass.com/07-16-toyota-tundra-sliding-rear-window-back-glass-slider-center-panel/

    I just did the installation. Window was ordered on Sunday and received on Wednesday via USPS Priority Mail. Install was pretty much like the youtube video. The window itself is fine and the same color tinting. The one thing that I didn't like is the cheesy latch that's attached. See the photo and compare it to the factory latch that I'm holding in my hand above what came on the window. I'm sure if I want I can replace it with the factory latch so I'll keep it just in case. It's really not that big of a deal, it just looks really cheap and doesn't operate with the finesse of the original.
