    Just finished install- love the advice to pull down the rear straps extra tight at first to get those rear snaps and then loosen/adjust again.

    Ordered both the standard window and mesh but may ride w rear open during dry months.

    If you ever decide you dont like/need the mesh window. Let me know, I'd be interested in buying. I know you just got it.....but just incase. :cheers:

    Can a bed extender still be used with a softopper?

    Yes. There is no interference other than having to open the rear flap to flip the extender. Once in place you can still close the rear flap of the topper.

    Really enjoying camping out of the back with the softopper. No complaints so far!

    The main place I get dust is through sides of the tailgate. You can see light easily through the cracks. I don't think the softopper itself is letting much of dust in. I haven't found it an issue worth fixing.

    Thanks! Did the whole "premium audio upgrade for $250" with JBL speakers and the kicker tweeters... one of the best mods I have done so far (stock head unit is actually decent)... the stock speakers are complete garbage... back to Soft Toppers. Tailgate seal is not a bad idea.

    Got this rack made by a local fabricator guy this week, pretty stoked on it. Got to get some better pics than these potato grams.
