I went to work on the slider, and I popped it in under a minute with nothing but the flat screw driver on my Leatherman without even causing any harm to the window.

I thought about it and took a look at mine, and the designs are very similar, meaning it would more than likely be just as easy with mine. That bothers me as I occasionally leave electronics in the truck on accident, and with my worn out ignition, anyone with a key that kinda fits in can start the truck.

Have any of you guys done something to make the stock slider more secure? It wouldn't take much, just something to keep the latch from being so easy to pop out. I mean, all I had to do to open the Comanche was pry the panes apart enough for the screw driver to slide in, then a couple quick smacks on the end of the multi-tool popped the latch.
