    I’ve been on the market for a hard one piece bed cover for my 2004 tacoma. I’ve been searching like crazy but can’t seem to find any. Do you guys know any brands that might make these bed covers or where i could find some?

    Are you looking for a fiberglass cover?

    Facebook marketplace, patience and be willing to drive a few hours when you find a decent one.

    You are welcome. I searched for several months and lucked up on an exact color match. 4 hours away and $300. Well worth it to me.

    Look at pictures of Leer and Snugtop camper shells on exact model as yours and learn what the windows and lines look like. Most FB folks just say Toyota cover and it can be difficult weeding through listings looking for your needed model. Helps if you already know how to identify what you are after. Then make sure window and back glass and handles are intact. Lift struts can be replaced cheaply. Windows cost too much.

    Snugtop makes one. I had one on my truck, sold it on craigslist for like 200$, wanted it gone. If I were you id get the ones that fold.

    Got a hard top tonneau too, from Amazon. They were $300ish a couple years ago. More like $500 now. It’s nice as well.

    And believe I’ve seen a couple of those fiberglass tops on FB as well.

    I bought mine used off of FB Marketplace for a couple hundred. I had to fix the locking mechanism but it was worth it. I had to wait a a few months to find one that was in decent shape and matched but they are out there!

    What area are you in? My personal recommendation is the Undercover Classic if you can find one second-hand. They're not rare or uncommon by any means. PXL_20240512_073957639.MP.jpg
