Not possible yet my freind. Speculation of even making a pop out kit still eludes us all. the problem is the rear clamshells act as a structurall pillar so I doubt we'll ever see actuall retractable windows.

check the search function, there are probably a thousand responses on this, don't just use search, use advanced search option. if you figure it out you will be a near instant millionare so please do go for it. I also will pay into your pocket for such an item.

The smart thing to do would be to become a vendor here, start with a group buy and give discounts to forum members, there after.
If this goes through, with top notch quality, I'd love to be a beta tester.

No you're not an idiot. I had the same question. My guess would be the rearmost side windows. I'm having trouble visualizing how they resemble a clam.
I don't think any idiots live in Monterey, but I could be wrong.:clap:

I'm just active duty military... not a permanent resident... I'm actually leaving in about 4 weeks to head towards the East Coast. I'll test the FJ MPG on a cross-country drive in about 2.5 days...

the back doors on either side are referred to as clamshells. the rear corner windows would be neat if they popped open too though but kinda a pain in the butt to go back and open them. lol

It would be nice to have a roll down window like the 4Rs but unfortunately don't think it is possible.:mecry:
I hardly ever use the widow, because It's just a hassle to open with the keys.
I would use it more often if it was a roll down. Although it would be nice if you could automatically open the back window key less and have it pop open by itself.:cheers:

According to Toyota market reps who go around asking what people would like to see in the next years version you cannot do anything to that door due to it's structural function. It basically keeps the whole truck from caving in.
here's some more discussion on the subject.
