Mark,

Stan the wildman from TX installed a PVC pipe as a scoop up front for added venting. Why not cut a whole in the rear side window glass and do something similar. Valves for large diameter PVC pipe is available. That way you can open and close the. If you can't get holes done on glass, get Plexiglas installed on one side. You can even get creative and put small reverse NACA ducts so as not to disturb the airflow much and still have an efficient vent.

I tried to modify a stock slider for rear installation but could not get the corners bent w/o breaking the aluminum. I will try to get some done professionally at a later date.
