Subject: Keeping Canopy Window Clean
IP: Logged

Message:
I have a leer canopy on my 89, and when it rains, it always gets incredibly dirty and becomes impossible to see through while I am driving. I can't figure out a way to keep the rear window clear. I have tried Rain-X, but it doesn't work for very long. Aside from washing and Rain-Xing the window every time I drive in the rain, is there anything I can do to keep it clean? Do they make wipers for canopy windows? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have been using my sideview mirrors. I would just like to be able to see out the back too :)

How 'bout one of those Air Dam thing-a-majigs to blow the air down the back while in motion?

I think what bearhit said will work. I have a canopy on my dakota and have the same problem. My brother has a canopy on his truck and he put a fin on the top/back of it and it greatly reduced the amount of road grime on it. I'm gonna try it.

I've heard that those rear 'air-dam-a-magigs' work well also on the rear window.

without the air dam-a-majig, the rear window is in sort of like A vacuum, or like an Eddie in A river. it collects dirt (worse when the window is wet). The air dam-A-majig will redirect the air coming from the top of the truck down across the window, blowing the dirt away from the window.

Yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for an air-dam-a-magig store to open, LOL.

They might have them at the place where you got your canopy also.
