    I like this a lot. I do have one concern though - road salt! I worry about salt getting under the wide lip and being a royal pain to get it out.

    Why not just make it fit OVER the stock plastic cap ? Would eliminate the gasket and tape (for paint protection) and possibly sit higher matching the side bed caps.

    * sorry if this has already been asked .. didn't see it here

    Good thought, but it wouldn't be able to fit nice and flush inside the tailgate if it went over the factory cap.

    Salt would never get in between the two pieces of gasket, and anything under the out lip would easily wash out.

    I worry more about salt getting under the factory side rail caps.

    It takes like 6 minutes to install, and that includes time to finish your beer :kona::kona::kona::kona:

    Just finished installing! Went on beautifully...with just one user error :) I slide the cap straight down, which appeared to push on the gasket a bit too much. Second try I "curled" it on from the front side. Popped right on, no hammer required!

    EBBE2977-F54C-4306-B74F-0486CC697CF2_zps_72a0e1dff4af2129b25bc9e1b401c1eed3ea089e.jpg

    Also, the sheet metal must be a tad bit thicker than the plastic cap (I didn't measure) - it was a close call with the bracket for the tonneaou cover:

    Awesome product!!! Thanks! I'll be keeping an eye out for new products!!

    *edit - the packaging was great...refreshing to see care put into it. It actually took me longer to unwrap it than to install it!

    Thanks!!

    I figure it's easier to take a little extra time packing, than to deal with people returning damaged goods.
