That's why I crack open the quarter windows. The slider being open creates turbulence that allows dirt and crap to blow into the cab.

You misunderstood what I posted. Opening the slider causes turbulence that swirls dirt and crap into the cab. You'd understand if you actually used your truck to haul a variety of items, like I do. My truck isn't a stranger to having the cargo box loaded with dirty motorcycles, tree branches, gravel, or anything else.

No, I understood you. I just sweep my bed out after I do that stuff. Or I dont open the window.

I use my slider about once a week at the minimum, I have a tool box so I dont have the dirt and stuff coming back in problem, I can open and close it while driving which makes it nice cant get to the sides that easy so they stay closed all the time

Yo, you should give sib#1 big credit for searching a related topic. It was relevant to him and he provided feedback on his experience.

Are they installed in the same manor, just different? And how did you remove them?
