    Hey all,

    Just got my Retrax the other day from Fedex. Writing this up as an initial thoughts and such while everything is fresh.

    Installation: Took about an hour or so with help from a friend. Took our time to make sure we were doing everything per the manual, even after watching a few install videos its good to read the manual before you start putting things together. The tools required were a ratchet set, phillips head screwdriver, torx bit set.

    One thing is that the cannister (where the cover rolls into) will delete the two stainless steel bed cleats in the front. I wasn't crazy about that but life is give and take.

    Initial thoughts: Slides nicely, seems to be sealed all around and the clamping system uses the internal bed rails to mount which I really like. Will probably do a follow up later after some snow. One thing I am not at all crazy for is the 1/2" drain tubes for the cannister. It requires drilling into the bed which I won't do. Instead I bought $10 worth of flexible pipe connectors to step down the tube to 1/4" OD to fit in the existing drain holes.

    Overall it wasn't terribly difficult just a bit time consuming. Picture below is right after we finished.
