New in the USA: RLD Design

is there an option for the 3rd brake light?

 

We are looking at that possibility as a phase two. But there are simple retrofit kits available that we could pre-install at our shop before shipment if that’s something you’re interested in now.

 

Probably a long shot but will these be made to fit 1st gens as well?

 

No current plans for that, sorry.

 

This looks awesome! How does it do with rain?

 

The only seal issues you’ll have are in the bed itself. The Tacoma beds aren’t terribly well sealed. But in moderate rain the positive pressure vent in the canopy will keep it dry.

 

Wanted to announce that we officially have Gen 2 canopies in the works and slated for arrival in August!

 

Pictures are great! Are there any YouTube videos of the shells? Very interested in the second generation Tacoma’s.

 

Check out @MilkTeacoma on Instagram, he's got some videos on his page. We also have a full walk-through video coming soon!

 

Is that walk through video completed yet? Any option for sliding windows on the side?

 

Yes sorry!
Sliding side windows are an option.

This thing looked expensive before I saw that a bar could be added on. These look interesting, waiting to see more of them installed.

 

First full container arriving next week. You’ll see a lot more out there shortly.

 

So when will these be ready to buy and is there any kind of warranty with them.

 

Available now - order at www.rlddesignusa.com

Yes, they have a 2-year warranty.

 

Do you have any videos or pics of the ones with side windows and the other standard colors. Also I dont see a option for color matching on the site for qicksand. Is the color matching an up charge? Another thing if I went with sliding windows on the side would I lose overall strength and stability versus with the solid doors?

 

We have some other photos on our Instagram page - check it out and if there’s anything else you need just let me know. There is a Ram with a charcoal canopy and black doors with side windows. No change in strength of the canopy.

There should be an option for entering a color for custom paint match. Are you not seeing that on your end? The actual paint match is $500 upcharge.

 

I am not seeing the option for custom paint match. Only white, gray, and black.

 

It would be neat if they offered an option taller than the cab. It looks like a nice product. Right now, if you want a metal canopy taller than the cab, you are limited to the commercial options provided by ARE, Leer, etc. Besides not looking great, these aluminum tubing+sheet designs do not last as long as the vehicle will.

 

Fixed. Glitch in the matrix, sorry about that.
