installed last night. Took my time and it took me about 45 minutes but i really made sure everything was attached tight and level and the clamps lined up across the bed. The only issue i had was the rubber on the tailgate was folded under and on the sides had numerous folds which i hope lay down as the weather heats up. Other than that it clamps down tight and is a great design.

A hair dryer will do wonders on the rubber seals. Mine sat right down after I heated them for a bit.

Ordered mine from Truckchamp on the 2/1 for 800, should be here this week.

Was 800, so I decided to do it..

I also ordered a Pop&Lock Electric tailgate lock, anyone tried one of these things yet? Was 70 bucks on Amazon, so it seemed like it would be worth it.

This thread has the best price and reseller information. The only question I have is: Was this the price for the 72203 cover or was it a different model?? I think for this price it's worth it to work the phones to finally get one.
Thanks
Pete

You actually drill a hole through the bed liner (not through the bed) and insert the hose into the hole. It uses the drains that are built into the truck bed to let the water flow out and onto the street. I actually drilled 2 holes one above the other to make the hole oval. This allowed the hose to go through with less of a sharp bend turning it downward.
