    Nothing crazy!
    Thanks! Not that long lol. The same as a dual swing. I usually use the side windows on the Smartcap to access my truck bed.

    I used this video on YouTube to hardwire it.

    There's some air above the tweeters, but yeah.

    I did listen to try to see if I noticed, and didn't notice any difference on my upgraded tweeters.

    First week I had the truck I hauled about a ton of river rock in the bed... No bed mat... Rocks slid around. Then I put a rear axle from my first gen back there to sell to someone and that thing slid around so bad .. at that point I knew I needed a bed mat. At the time it was totally a necessary $80 to spend. Functionaly I use it all the time . I always have something in the bed and it really prevents stuff from sliding all over the place .

    I’d say this is similar experience for a great many of us. I think I had my truck three weeks before getting one. Stuff was flying all over the place. The composite bed is very slick.

    Purchased Toyota Certified, with Vijay bumpers, additional lights, and Falken Wildpeaks on Fuel rims. Prev owner apparently painted the grill.
    And MISERABLE to kneel on if you need to get to the front of the bed.

    If you aren't hauling dirt around, BedRug bed mat is much nicer than the OEM rubber.
    I've had one for 2 years now, I use my truck for construction work and the BedRug holds up real well and is more comfortable to climb around in.

    I got a Northern tool mat last year sometime for less than 20 bucks. It is starting to show some wear, but I'm fine with it.
