RSI Smart Cap

Do you know if that tacoma in the front is on the forums? Wanted to know how he had his awning mounted on the back of his rack

 

I wish you guys were open on the weekends.

 

We are open one Saturday a month for out of town cap installs. Call the shop and set up yours.

 

Hard to tell but it looks like a Roam awning. They make a small one that would easily fit on the back of the Smartcap.

 

You beat me to it. Thanks Mike and boys.

 

Quick question to either of the sellers if you catch this...

What's it take to get a Super White color matched Sport unit for my new '21 long bed? Is that a long wait for a special order? Cost additions?

TIA

 

All it takes is a pm.

 

Thank you for your patience. Let us know if we can help with anything else in the future.

 

Added load bars.

 

Looks nice! Putting mine on tomorrow, but the metal plates I have for the Frontrunner bars need to be ground down a bit to fit the narrower RSI tracks. Hopefully it’s not too much grinding.

The more I see these front rack and load bar setups, the happier I am with choosing it.

 

White is in stock pretty much all the time but not black, Sport or EvoA...

 

We have found it easier to use different hardware then grind down those stainless plates.

 

Today's Install with a Front Runner rack. We have more coming in every week.

 

Racks are on! The amount of grinding on the steel plates wasn't too terrible. Hardest part was trying to create spacer sized holes in the ditch strips for the cab rack mounts.

 

For everyone installing the Matt gecko led’s is there an easier power source or wire doubting versus going all the way to the battery?

 

I have the Gecko kit for my GFC and went all the way to the battery. Previously I had a standard ARE topper with led lighting installed. That setup tapped the rear tail light for brake light functionality and grounding, but the main power wire still ran all the way up the frame to the battery. Seems pretty standard.

 

Sounds good! I am sure once I have it in front of me it will make sense.

 

I've gone with 6 independent AAA-powered magnetic pods for in-cap lighting. These are remote-controlled with multi-colored functionality for the occasional in-bed party. Less fuss and zero installation grief. So far all my electrical mods have been 'Plug & Play' with harnesses.
And with expected battery life, this cap lighting option will suit me just fine. (I also have the OEM LED Bed lights as an additional option.)

The strobe function on the pods will also be nice for additional emergency lighting in case this is needed... (they would be stuck with the magnets on the outside of the cap.)

 

Ive looked into both RSI and RLD, I've checked the RLD out in person. I like the fact that they are stainless steel instead of fiberglass but they are super pricey. I thought about getting one to keep my dogs in the back while driving around town so they have extra protection. I still don't understand how their negative air pressure thing works or whatever. Sort of sounds like it doesn't actually work, would be curious to see if it does.
