    Thanks for the feedback guys. I ended up going with a Bestop; I think it will better suit my needs. Plus I didn't want to shell out over a grand for a top after I just ordered bumpers. :D

    Just got mine installed this week.

    Snugtop with windoors, keyless entry, flip down and slide front window, headliner and roof rack rails.
    Also Bedrug.

    While I am not in love with the look of the windoors, they are all but a necessity for work. Not getting any younger and climbing over all my stuff to retrieve something in the front of the bed sucks.

    So... Two weeks ago I bought my Tacoma and it came with a shell. I tried to sell the shell thinking I didn't need it...

    MAN I'M GLAD I DIDN'T!!!

    This thing is great. It's rained (poured) on me several days and all my stuff has stayed nice and dry. No worries. Love it.

    Does anybody have a ARE CX or MX with toolboxes? I would like to see how much room they take up in the bed.

    Camper shell.
    I got a Leer shell for 700 used, it's just what they cost for my 12 Taco. Made this platform bed, and added some bike mounts with the leftover carpet and lumber.
