    No, the two slots up on the top rail.

    I used foam blocks that came with my cover. Any areas I saw light I added Coax Seal to. Haven't had any leaks.

    When I got my Leer cap on my last truck they just used silicone. Worked great. You can get it in black at any home improvement store.

    My Undercover came with a pair of "peel & stick" foam pads. They would be easy to make from materials at a hardware store. (You do need to remove the top rail to do it though. Just 5 torx screws.)

    This is what I did, had to go back 3 times but think I finally got it. 3rd time I went out at night and held a flashlight on one side and looked from the other, that made it easy to find where the final leak(s) were.
