    Yes it looks like the screw pulled out.

    Any ideas on what the topper brand might be?

    Not a clue. Have you checked that the light isn't battery powered?

    Is there a screw on the other side holding it together? Doesn't look like that screw belongs there..

    Can you run a bolt through the shell and use a nut on the inside instead of a screw?

    So I've looked around and that screw seems to be correct. As in it matches the other screws. You got a point though. I can just use a nut and bolt.

    Hi guys it's me again... Lol.

    I think I'm a step closer to figuring out the brand of topper I have.

    Does this logo look familiar to anyone? I tried the best I could to zoom in but it's not a great picture.

    Thanks in advance!

    a little late here…ARE Zseries, OTR finish, ordered in late December and finally installed late May, line X shortage was the hold up apparently, so worth the wait. Love this thing

    I wonder how well that washes and stays clean , is it a smoother texture than regular Line X

    My little 89 pickup but still had a nice solid shell. I 100% see the usefulness of a shell after this one. This one is my first

    So far so good. It’s a light textured surface by no means rough or clingy, definitely a sealed finish. Seems to wash and dry well. Only a month in so time will tell how well it holds up.

    Sweet truck! I had a ‘88 until we started having kids in 2000. Wasn’t enough room for the family. That 22re motor will out last any newer Toyota motor. Those things were bullet proof!

    Just got a brand new ARE installed on my 2004 Tacoma today! Been really looking forward to getting one on there.

    @yotadude520 nice!

    I'm surprised they're still producing something for a vehicle model that hasn't been produced in 17yrs.

    Probably sitting on the rack at ARE unpainted, but primed, until an order was received.

    I was really surprised too! I looked for a used one for a while and after looking around found out that ARE still makes them. Really happy considering used ones were impossible to find and that any used one would need to be repainted and resealed and the cost for that would already be right around what a new one costs.
