    I am actually running a 270 awning and it goes over the hood of the truck. I ended up extending the awning to open the other direction like a 180 as well. I have pictures somewhere in this thread I think.

    How does your extension fold into the awning carrier?

    I added a extension plate on the opposite end so when it closes it doesn't hit the original arms. Like so:

    Seeking some advice from you fellow uptoppers.

    So I already have an alpha roof rack w/ scene pods + s8 light bar installed up front. It's on my 2020, so I had to drill a hole in the roof to run the wiring down (thin fin not compatible with 2020).

    I've recently received my full height truss (retrax version) and alpha ex to go with it. This includes another set of scene pods lights (4) and the quickwire.

    As I plan out the install, I'm a little unsure about how to run this new wiring into my cab. Should I try to:
    a) pull wiring through existing hole + grommet in roof
    b) widen existing hole if need be, utilize same hole, add bigger grommet if necessary
    c) drill new hole opposite my existing one and run wire there
    d) ????

    Appreciate any insight or suggestions!

    I would personally try to pull the wiring through the existing hole and grommet if there is space.
    So, if A doesn't work, go B. I personally would not do C, as that may look a bit odd.
    Another potential option would be to run the wiring down through the bed, along the frame, and back up to the engine bay, into the cab from the firewall.

    :eek: Oof.
    Lesson learned. UPS from US to Canada using UPS Standard shipping is killer.
    Items: $827.91 USD
    Shipping: $145.00 USD
    Total: $972.91 USD ($1274.80 CAD)

    Additional:
    USD-->CAD Mastercard transaction fee: $31.87 CAD
    Brokerage fee: $109.62 CAD
    GST: $62.36 CAD

    $1478.59 CAD ($1128.44 USD)
    That really makes the butt hurt.
    But hey, at least the holiday sale saved me $92USD :canada:

    I suppose shipping via: UPS Worldwide Express Plus, UPS Worldwide Express Freight, UPS Worldwide Express Saver, and UPS Worldwide Expedited Services isn't possible? That would at least eliminate the $109.62 Brokerage fee...

    Anyways, stoked for the Retrax Mid-height Truss bed rack to get here in a few days. Thanks upTOP!

    Got an email from UpTop a few minutes ago... damn near shit myself.

    Sadly, it was an email for a new roof rack for the Xterra.

    :mad:

    When you get it, it will be worth the emotional bondage.
