    So any word on Diamondback tonneau cover adapters and height options?

    Where can I get the other half to the connector for my ThinFin to hook my pods up?

    I think they need someone with a diamondback to go down there for some R&D.

    I also would like to know about the other connector half.

    I'm still drooling over your racks (so to speak). The dream is to get an Alpha and an Alpha eX for an eventual topper. Keep up the stellar work!

    @upTOPoverland I'm in. Order #14362SY!

    My hunt for a camper shell roof rack came down to upTOP's Bravo eX Tacoma Cap Rack or Prinsu's Tacoma Top Rack. I scanned though a whole lot of TW threads and upTOP Overland and Prinsu were the two names that stood out. The Prinsu is supposedly 5 pounds lighter which tempted me, but Drew's detailed write-ups (and upTOP's 4th of July sale) swayed me. I also prefer the look of the upTOP.

    Will follow up once I'm able to share a review. Thanks Drew!

    Prinsu was pretty much the only one on the market for a long time before being sold to CBI. Uptop is talked about a lot because of their unique design and in some cases excessive price. Other great brands include Sherpa, And Martin Racks. Martin makes something similar to Prinsu but never had a website. There are others but mostly the same as Prinsu. Can make your own for $200. I don’t recall a lot of rack options back in 2019 when this thread was made.
