    I have a 2014 ARE Camper Shell on a 2006 DoubleCab 6 foot bed Tacoma. It is missing the part that goes between the rear window and the tailgate. It is apparently called a "contour strip". I'd like to order a new one. The problem is that I have a 2014 camper shell and a 2006 Tacoma.

    Should I order the contour strip that fits the 2014 shell? Will the 2014 countour strip fit the 2006 tailgate? Or should I order the contour strip that fits the 2006 Tacoma tailgate?

    ARE dealer says the strip is $90. I don't want to buy a contour strip that doesn't fit the window and I don't want to buy a contour strip that fits the window but leaves a gap between the window and the tailgate.

    Any recommendations?

    Thanks!

    I would think it would work for 2005-2015 Tacoma's at least.
    Your dealer should know that.
    Anyway, I have a 2013 and got an ARE shell in 2019 and everything looks fine to me.
    Think I'd get the one for the year of the shell.
