Softy for my Colorado

my Softtopper came in today and I promptly unboxed it and put it on.

the instructions and assembly were damn easy. I suffered head injuries awhile back and my reading comprehension is pure ****, however I had only limited issues with this installation. This is the 1st time in a long time that I didn't need assistance to understand something as simple as "put tab A into hole B" (not kidding, that can cause all sorts of shorts in my wiring)...

The quality of the material seems pretty good and overall Im very happy with the outcome. I need to pull a bit here and there to get the fit "perfect" but its pretty darn good.

Next up is a bed rack for my RTT...and where will I mount this re-purposed heavy duty stainless box...hmm... (after I get a lock for it)

That looks really good. I'll be picking one up for my F150 when I get back state side.
I'm close enough that I'll just pick it up at the factory.
How are you putting a RTT on it?

cool, they seem a pretty nice company and the "made in USA" is a nice part :) I will be having a bed rack built for it that rides on the truck rails, you put the softtoper rails on top of the rack and then clamp everything down. Advisable to add a strip of weatherproofing material to reduce chances of leaks.

this picture gives you an idea, its sitting on a frame. in my case the bed rail is very wide and where you see this having an overhang going on with the legs, mine should fit flush
