    Isn't Stitch blue?

    Hmmmmmm...

    Methinks there is a coincidence.

    Do you need to know, or care?
    Ok, thanks for clarifying. Didn't know you could order additional seals.

    Stitch is a little more dark and pale blue, but close. I've always liked this shade of blue. Since I was a kid. Now... I've got enough blue items that shade to fill a twin size bed probably 4 times. XD

    No freaking lie. Helpful on the phone, but I guess they're using European swallows and not the African coconut-carrying variety.

    Well, they are laden, not unladen swallows. That could make a difference I suppose. :)

    Is this tailgate seal a Toyota part? I guess you 3rd gens have the factory tonneau cover, so the seal is appropriate.

    Even with the factory cover, you're going to want to get a tailgate seal of some kind. The tonneau keeps out dirt and water that comes from above - I've found that dust and water (especially from a pressure washer) can get into the bed at the sides of the tailgate. The tailgate seal helps further to keep that crud out, and turn your bed into basically a large rectangular car trunk.

    It certainly makes a difference, not 100% weather right, but it does the job. I think if everyone could get the plastic pcs that Toyota puts in the holes on the head rails with the factory cover it would make the biggest difference.

    I'm looking forward to the cab rail plug showing up. Once they're installed, I should be quite "moisture resistant."

    God knows it doesn't rain often enough here, but when it does it DOES.

    Hello my friend. It's nicer and quieter over here, there are expectations of kindness, and the color blue is celebrated in all it's forms.

    Hope your day is going well!
