    Have you seen what OEM supported accessories are offered by Toyota Australia?

    Accessories (tons!)
    https://www.toyota.com.au/hilux/customise#f09267d8-eede-47eb-9658-60d7218f36aa-pane

    CAP brochure
    https://www.toyota.com.au/hilux/-/m...enuine-canopies-brochure-web-180717.pdf?la=en

    Their CAP and tonneau covers are contructed of ABS plastic, the former with tube frame. This looks like a whitespace product that could easily outsell the crappy fiberglass constructed bed covers. Thermoplastic manufacturing would be cheaper, easier on logistics, offer far greater design opportunities for form factors/features, and could even be offered with pellete-dyed colors. Why don't we have these here??
