Default TEK STYLE tonneau covers

Have you heard about the quality or ease of installation of the TEK STYLE tonneau covers? Found them at a very reasonable price and was wondering. In fact, so reasonable that it makes me wonder if they are worth it.

Haven't heard much about them but it looks like you can get these for about the same price http://4wheelonline.com/Products.asp...ProductId=8157
I much prefer this style to the ones with snaps, I used to have this cover until I rolled the truck, it got mangled and I decided to spring for Rhino Liner now and get a fiberglass tonneau down the road.

I've got a Trifecta cover and love it. No hardware to mount on the truck. No snaps.

Thanks

I checked their site and they list the product up to 2004 Dak. I have the '05. I'll call them tomorrow about the '05.

Look further down in the list, they list the 2004 and under daks, then some rams, then the 2005+ daks. Not sure why they separated it like that.

The Extang Solidfold the best cover I've seen, but pricey $750ish.

http://www.extang.com/docs/solidfold.html

You can get an Extang Trifecta for $350ish. Its a stretched leather cover over an aluminum frame. Built in, spring loaded "SpeedKlamps" at the 4 corners hold them on. Solid, easy-on easy off easy store. Folds in thirds for access to 2/3 of the bed, while still securely mounted.
