    I got the Downey SST for my Taco.

    Maybe 1-1/8" high if that.

    Very nice!

    Another one to look at is armorlid. Its almost identical to the undercover but seems to be alittle cheaper.

    I emailed gaylordlids to see if they can send me better pics of the cover. I like the under cover one as it is really low profile.

    The speedster one fro gaylordlids seems to be what I am leaning towards but it it sits to high in the pics out there I am going with undercover.

    Is it a leather top or is it paint able?

    I just got off the phone with Lisa at Gaylordlids. Very nice to talk to and more than helpful. The lid weighs more than the under cover one but comes paint matched from them. Just based off customer service I am most likely going to go with them. It is so hard to find a company to spend the time to answer the questions you have.

    Thanks Lisa
