Our 1992 Explorer doesn't have a remote rear window release. I'd like to retrofit one so I can take advantage of that feature on the keyless entry setup I ordered.

Which years/models had it? I'll probably grab one from the boneyard.

Thanks,

Thanks,

Are you talking about the liftgate? I think only 2002s come with an electric release for it. My 95 with factory keyless doesn't have that feature. But I'm sure you can do something with aftermarket parts. Good luck :hammer:
 






I would like to "pop" open the rear glass only on a '92.

The keyless entry unit that I have allows for the opening of the trunk or rear window. What years/models ,if any, had the ability to "pop" the back window only?

Only 2002 models have that feature, as far as I know. I think you can just buy any aftermarktet truck release module that is compatible with your keyless unit and use it for the liftgate.
 












No electrical rear window openers? No way.

Every station wagon ever made has a button to pop the rear window.

Ford-The better idea?
 






My 99 doesn't have the feature either.

Keep us posted on how you do it if you do.

Good luck.
