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

after checking the price of a new one! 
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...
