    Adding the undercover ultra flex to cover the bed. Now the question is whether to wire the lock to the door locks or to run a separate switch for just the tailgate to the cab.

    Wire tithe locks. Would be a pain to have to unlock the cab then hit the switch when you want to put something in the locked bed.

    That's what I'm thinking. Ill probably try to put it to the passenger so have to hit button twice just for fact its not unlocking and locking every single time
