I'm planning on one but I'm waiting till I can get a Leer 700 at the same time. No point putting a locking tailgate on with a soft tonneau, that's asking to have it sliced up...

Which one did you decide to go with?

My cap should be here in about three weeks, and after looking at the 'manual' tailgate lock, I leaning more towards the electrick lock...

This my Dak with the ARE Z series topper. It's on of the best-looking toppers and my second ARE. I had one on my 95 Dak. Let us know on the electric latch. I may go that way also.

Now that is a good pic of the cap!! Have you thought about sending the a copy for their website?

Well I bit the bullet and bought the Pop-n-Lock electric latch ($78.95 free shipping) last night. Once it get here I willdocument the process for future reference.
