I have a colormatched SnugFit SL on my 04. Great lid, IMO. The bottom of it really compliments my BedRug, too!



The problem is that it is DARK in there at night! I was looking for a simple lighting solution to light up the bed at night. Got any?

 

My A.R.E has a battery powered light that works ok.You dont have to run wires. Can buy at home center . They come in several styles.

They aslo sell those dome lights that we "AS SEEN ON TV" taht you pull on the dome to turn them on. They are battery powered, and can be purchased at most dollar stores!

 

I can't tell from the pics, how does the top lock down?

My leer has latches in both rear corners,

I can't see anything on the cover itself.

 

There are latches on the inside of both sides that are operated by a flush mounted key hole on top. It is a very clean design.

I was at Wal-Mart yesterday and saw some battery operated flourescent lights. I think I'll go with those. Thanks for the suggestions!

 

Take a look in my Gallery. I have the ARE LSII. I love it. Auto locking (integrated with my key chain lock) and light. They have wired versions or battery versions.

 

My wife was just asking me to put a light under our tonneau. That Wal-mart light sounds like the ticket.
I was thinking about running a power tap and a mercury switch, but heck with it, batteries are cheap.
Thanks for the suggestion.

I think I need a bed rug. They're looking better and better the more I see pictures of them. I was worried I'd get it too dirty, but I don't think so. I rarely haul anything filthy. The comfort would be a plus for me.

This ons is the neatest, most versatile hard top that I have ever seen!

Yes - great for warm claimate areas but useless where there is ice and snow. They sure would be handy to roll back just a little to get in the end of the truck box.

 

Actually from what I hear it still works well in Ice and Snow, the way the bearings and moving parts are covered, you would have to have a major sheet of ice accross the top to have it keep you from getting in. I know that is possible, but usually not a daily occurrance... In which case, you open the gate and are set!

 

I love mine. I'd sleep in the back of the truck if my wife weren't so darn good looking...and warm.

 

I would love to get one, but I am fond of my tool box, making a hard tonneau a custom proposition.

 

I hear that Retrax www.RollTopCover.com will custom one for you to work with your tool box, shouldnt be more since it would be less material I am guessing.

Where's the pictures... Ha Ha
