    Would love to see pictures of what you did so I could get an idea of how to best implement.

    Last week I threw on the SofTopper. I didn't put the snaps on the front of the bed, or the velcro on the tailgate. A trip to COTA revealed its importance...I had free flowing air from front to back.

    Today I (after 3 tries) got the front panel within 1/4" of center. My OCD is mild, so I can deal with that. From the outside it looks perfect, and functions as it should. Then made minor adjustments to the placement of the entire top, and added velcro to the tailgate to hold the rear flap. Using the provided strips

    I got the front panel sufficiently taunt.

    Like I said, not exactly centered, but good for me.

    With it done, the top is level and smoothe. I like!

    And the tailgate flap is secured!

    I'm enjoying this truck too much!

    Buddy traded his '17 Sport in 3 weeks ago with a new Leer topper on it. I got the bed mat out of it...was surprised the dealership let me have it.

    If you know of anybody looking for a good Tacoma I can vouch for this truck. He traded only because of the seats. He bought a new Tundra Limited.

    Been thinking about getting one of these for hauling our 2 kayaks. Would make things a lot easier at a very reasonable price. Glad you like it.

    If you are trying to charge your cell phone via the usb port you are going to be disappointed. It only charges at a .5 amp or something. It's mostly for connecting a device to Entune to play music. If you want to charge your phone while driving get a usb charger for the cigarette lighter. They charge at full power or @ 2.4 amps.

    Thanks. I might let my wife do it, that way if she doesn't like how it looks she can't blame me.

    How tight did you fasten down the rail clamps? When I installed mine today I noticed that if I cranked the clamps down too much I could see the rail on the side of the truck bed pulling upwards just a bit. Im concerned about there being too much upwards torque on those truck bed rails.

    Rich - good to know. I took to dealer today and they found water in wiring harness?? Interestingly, they replaced a license plate bulb as well ( wonder if water got in there too - common problem I hear).B825C2B6-447A-41F8-88EF-DB2A45258CD2.jpg

    Washed my truck today and noticed a little bit of moisture on the inside of the front passenger side window.

    This a common issue?
