Are toppers made to order from the factory with all your requested specs? Or do the dealers/sellers apply your specs? What I'm really interested in knowing is if you get a used topper could you have a window or option changed at a dealer or is it all from the factory?

Windows can be swapped, racks can be added. Carpet would most likely be a diy as idk if a dealer could install it.

Just be warned, the dealer will want to upcharge you on the cost of a window to swap it out. I went direct to the manufacturer of the windows and saved a ton of cash over the dealer price to get a windoor for mine.
