I got a sudden urge to repair the old one...

Post by PHPaul »

after checking the price of a new one! :shock: :shock: :o :o

The hard folding tonneau cover (a BakFlip G2) on my Tundra is definitely showing it's age and the rear latch bar came about half undone from the cover last time I opened it.

"Time for a new one" sez I.

Except that they've better than doubled in price since I bought the last one. Over $1000 for a friggin' tonneau cover? I think not.

A drill, some Chicago screws, a little cussing and some creative engineering and it's back in operating condition. Doesn't even look too bad. From a respectful distance...
