    Does it not come with clamps at all?

    What diameter shrink tubing did you use over the bars and light strips? That's a great idea!

    New ST orders should come with 4 clamps and some type of weather stripping. At least I'd hope they do.
    Perhaps @Mach375 is suggesting additional clamps be purchased?? I'm in the sector still running factory plastic bed rails. I have and have had a hard shell on my taco since day 1.

    Gotta love the Tacomaworld spirit of helping. I am checking on if accessories and parts only apply for the discount. I will post back up once we confirm.

    Accessories are included in the discount when buying the topper. I am confirming if they count standalone.

    When we order a topper, will the dark tint rear panel be available as an upgraded option for a slight upcharge? Or will we need to order it as a secondary option in addition to the topper?

    Too much to list, but enough to get me in trouble. Repeatedly.
    I have no idea. I bought mine used, and clamps were with it. Never even put them on (still have them, somewhere, if anyone needs spares). I think it does.

    I would consider getting two additional clamps, as the rails are two-piece, joined in the middle where the primary pivot is. I could see that joint slightly buckling, or losing strength when folded down. One clamp across the joint would set up for a very strong install.

    I used 1", but it was a major PITA slipping it over the bends. I would suggest 1.5" to make things MUCH easier. A single 4-foot stick is all you need, per strip/bar.

    Probably a question that you will want to call in the order for to confirm! If you do, feel free to respond for the rest of the group once the GB begins!

    I've probably sold half a dozen of these just from people admiring mine. I've actually had people take pictures of it inside and out, and not always with me posing shirtless. :D

    Thanks for letting us know.
    Keep this rolling folks. The more success we have with group buys the more we increase future opportunities for the collective.

    For those of you on the fence about getting it, just go ahead and do it. These softopper group buys rarely ever happen.IMG_4692 (2).jpg
