You cant. Look at the rear of the door and it curves to follow the rear wheel. There is no room to roll it all the way down.

They made it compact. I really would not want it to roll down all the way because then the door would have to be longer, and then we would have Contour limos.

You should have had our 1999 Tahoe, the rear windows rolled down maybe 4-5" at the most, talk about a pain in the butt.....

I think some early '80s Chevy Malibus had rear windows that didn't roll down AT ALL.

My father had a cutlass supreme, rear windows didn't move one inch, they just had seperate little vent windows that opened out a bit.
