Default Best place for Left Rear Door Glass?

Well, I am not going to write the story, but I need glass. I'll find out how much paint damage there is when I get back home. I don't want to chat on here till I get back, but any leads would be appreciated. Mine are factory tinted. 22% Transparency.

If it isn't opening already, now is the time to convert. And I'd try a junkyard.

also your door window opening is not drilled for the opening rear window latch and hinges.

Did that to mine. Got them from a U-Pull-It yard. Gotta remember to get the rubber gasket, the latch, and hinge. I also found the plastic trim bezels that hold the window blinds and a bunch of window blinds. It took several trips over several months to get everything and 2 of the blinds are green and the rest are grey. I spray painted the bezels grey. I also found a good spare tire mount for the back door and a spare tire cover. Now I'm looking for a hitch.

I already have opening factory tinted glass. Someone decided to take a hammer to my window. i just wish i could confirm the reason. Small town politics perhaps. i was sleeping, I didnt even know he smashed it out until I realised the only reason i could smell so much freshly spewed gravel was because i had no glass left. Oncoming, he pulled tight alongside me, reached out his window smashed my window and hit the gas spraying my truck with mud and gravel. Crazy town.

I figured it was over a woman spending time with me, but I don't know.
