    picked up some bushwhacker fender flares last night, but they don't have the edge trim. I noticed on an install video that they put on a rubber looking c-channel around the edge, probably to protect the paint and make a better seal? Any suggestions on what to use?

    Thanks...do you think it would just be better to use double sided tape? It looks like these only screw in from the bottom, not sure how secure they'll be on the top.

    This is awesome. Did you just have to buy this and an additional camera for the front? That website is terrible unfortunately. The shipping says it’s ~$50.

    Any chance you have a video of you using it via the factory buttons?

    Yeah, they are t30 screws just like the other ones on the factory rail but they just spin either direction. Almost feels like they are held in by a nut. I might take the rail off to see if that’s the case.

    Knee rests against it. I don't mind it. Could put a layer of foam or such if needed. I'll take the slight discomfort for the increased safety. Made this a while back and moved it from my Hyundai Santa Fe.

    Mine had no screws either. I just recently removed the rail to install some weather stripping. Wonder if yours had the factory tonneau cover and it was removed before sales?
