Icon3 Swap a single-pane back glass with a slider back glass?!

Is it possible to swap a single-pane back glass with a slider back glass in my 2011 Ranger XLT?
I couldn't find an OEM replacement from Carlite that matched my other AS2 Solar Tint windows, but I did find an AS3 replacement which suggests it is possible, but not sure why I can't find an AS2 tint.

Thanks!

Yes
1983 to 2011 EXTENDED CABS all used the same bolt in rear windows, slider or non-slider
Regular cabs were different up to 1997, they don't bolt in, held in by glue and molding

1998 and up regular or extended cabs used same rear windows

Ford did add 2 more studs at some point but easy enough to drill the 2 new holes in the cab window frame to put a later model window in an older cab
Older have 3 holes on top and 3 on bottom, one on each side

Later they got 5 on top and 3 on bottom, one on each side

But your 2011 will have the 10 holes so you can use any 1998 and up rear window
