I believe the Bakflip is close to flush while the Mopar cover sticks up a bit.

He discovered there wasn't so he closed tailgate on seal. Never thought I would have to lock the tailgate with nothing in the back. To bad I didn't see him, I could of showed him my toy I have in the console!
If you have an Undercover then you wouldn't have had that problem.

Before I got used to it I closed my tailgate on the seal a couple times.. I fixed it right away though, so luckily there was no problems. I do keep mine locked, one day I may get the keyless entry kit..

Well the OEM lock kit is BS they make you buy too much, if you have the locking one why can't you just drill the hole for the camera and add the lock and different rods, install camera, run wiring and save some money for the extra handle.

Does anyone have a handle without the lock or camera that they replaced it with a locking camera they want to sell cheap, I need a spare in case my experiment fails. I am in Ontario, Canada PM me if you have one and how much. thanks.

I have one just sitting in my garage. Let me know if you're interested in it. I'm not looking to make much off of it, just enough to cover shipping and time.

yeah. i didnt read my last post. but i have since got it to sit pretty good. basically i got *** jammed due to my bed being a little out of spec on the wide side. having to used mulitiple spacers etc. other than that its pretty good. i have definately used the crap out of the maximum folding ability to carry stuff in the bed. (i.e. flipping it up against the glass for maximum bed usage)
