Rod Doors Rear Cab Cover

Hello,

Has anyone installed the Rod Doors Rear Cab Cover? https://roddoors.com/products/rd3226...er-panels-pair


Trying to decided what to do for the rear of the cab of my 52. Installed the Rod Doors Headliner today, Happy with how it turned out.

headliner

headliner clips I heat up just to open them up a little-- never broke one yet-- the entire system is a tight set up and looks GREAT -- CAN KEEP AS IS OR PAINT it OR cover it

I glued the two side clips back on using abs glue, didn't use the velcro tabs so drilled a hole in the centre and used a push clip instead.. didn't have all this trouble when I did the pickup..

The clips on the side above the door are the hardest part of installation in the 52. Spent more time (more than I will admit) getting them in place. The instructions provided were for the old design without the clips.
