    I see both the trifold and rollup on eBay all the time. Someone even has a 6’ rollup listed in the BST thread. I’m sure they are also on Amazon as well.

    There's no telling... but the photo is of a Tundra, so there may be a difference there.... is the Tundra bed the same size? Also could have been one of those coupon days.

    Just getting started...
    Damn, would love to get one of these hard tri-fold covers for my new truck, but being at an APO address presents a challenge as the shipping weight is just over the 70lb limit for packages and no one wants to split the shipment. Anyone know of a vendor that might be a bit more helpful?

    Can these tri fold toneaus flip up a third time (basically blocking the rear window) so you can use the entire bed if you needed?

    I ordered a set of these latches from etrailer.Com. I think they are made for an extang. I could get the hooks into to rails but they were maxed out these got me back about 1/2" of travel. I also bought the t nuts to make a bracket similar to the one the OP got with his for the rear panel. FYI mine came with no mounting hardware at all. Not even poorly translated instructions. it's worked out to be a pretty good top though. Yesterday slush laid on top of it all night and it had a small puddle in it, but it is pretty water resistant 20190117_065643.jpg

    I picked up this one for 3rd gen for $357. Arrived in 2 days.
    https://www.ebay.com/itm/2016-2019-TOYOTA-TACOMA-5-FT-BED-Aluminum-Lock-Hard-Tri-Fold-Tonneau-Cover/273559351195?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

    Nice build quailty, the brackets that attach to the rail could be improved (lengthened) I had to sit them as high as possible and loosen the handle/latch as far as they'd go. I'll be getting some kind of to prevent the handle/latch from sliding so mcuh (left and right) which will help with attaching and detaching. seems to seal pretty well, some areas where water could get in near the bulkhead, I'll need to put some rubber seal (looks like this would apply to any brand Tonneau). I do like the fact that it could be fully removed in about a minute as there are latches near the bulkhead. One thing missing from the $900 covers is the safety hook that would normally screw in toward the bulk head. It did include all the necessary hardware to apply to the rails (12x bolts, 12x nuts shaped to fit in rails, 6x brackets). Overall I'd say 7.5/10 but worth the money.

    Here is one for the 6 foot bed I’m seriously thinking about getting one. Wondering it I can still use the cleats with the cover on. Also doesn’t look like it can fold up against the back window to expose the entire bed.
