I have a sportmaster soft tonnel cover with the snaps and the cross bars to keep it stable at highway speeds. Other than the fact that I have to remove it for tall items it works fine. It is about 99% water tight. Only get a few drips when it really rains hard. I didn't install mine myself so I really don't know how hard it was to install. I had the dealer do it.
